A Story for Baby Charlotte
by Saba Bob
What will you do, when you are two?
Will you put on a shoe, or hear a cow moo?
Will you go to a zoo, to laugh at a kangaroo?
There is much to do, when you are two.
What will you see, when you are three?
Will you look up a tree, or down at a honey bee?
Will you get to the sea, or learn your letters with me?
How much fun will it be, to be as big as three.
What will you have in store, when you are four?
Will your friends come to the door, so you can play on the floor.
Will you ride waves at the shore, and begin to soar.
Will you know so much more, when you are four?
What will arrive, when you are five?
Will you ride a bike, and learn to dive?
Will you make believe you can drive,
And feel happy to be alive, when you are five?
What will you do for kicks, when you are six?
Will pick up sticks, and have lolly pop licks?
Will you stir the cake mix, and blow out the candlesticks?
Will you play fun tricks, when you are six?
There is a great big world waiting for you.
So much for you to see, its true.
I wonder what you will do, when you are two.
