STANDING ROUND



What secret does sweet Zackery
Whisper to little Mabel Lucie
While they stand upon the shelf
Because they can do nothing else

This standing round can be long
So a tale or two can keep them strong
and secrets shared and words uttered
 fill the time that is uncluttered

Unlike the shelves where they all do wait
some squashed in can get irate !
A push, a shove ,a foot trod on
can make these waits seem oh so long !

But soon will come their mother dear
to pick them up so they'll appear
upon the blog post and strut their stuff
gain some praise and up they'll puff

That praise will keep them company
while they wait for you or me
To fill their lives with play and joy
for to us their more than toys

So what tale does sweet Zackery
Whisper to little Mabel Lucie
While they wait upon the shelf
Because they can do nothing else

    Yes, I wonder what they do speak about whilst they wait? And what they get up to in our absence?
