Hi!
It was an easy set of words to write around today 😉
As I have mentioned before, our boys love to pretend they are serving in a café. They also love visiting such establishments in real life, especially if there is good cake on the menu! I can’t think where they got that trait from…
Trench Ensure Verdict Customer Waiter Reference Dribble Presence Adventure
He popped up from the trench
He’d constructed from cushions,
To ensure I did not forget
August last year
My promised game.
I dutifully gave my verdict
On how well the walls were holding,
Then became his first customer
As he morphed into ‘Waiter’.
(I am not sure who gave their reference
In support of this man’s prowess,
Because while I was there he fumbled fish
And went on to dribble milk…)
In my boy’s delighted smile
It was plain for all to see:
My very presence lent great weight
To each role-played adventure.
I pictured Youngest in particular for this poem, as we were chatting about cafes at length the other day. However, Eldest is the one who is more likely to barricade himself in places with the playroom accessories!
Do you remember building things with random soft furnishings?! I had great fun with my mum’s giant floor cushions, and the novelty footstool that’s in the shape of a tortoise 😉
This is more ‘ramp’ than ‘barricade’, but you get the idea…
It’s funny how much comes back to make you smile, when you spend time in a kid’s world!
