Once upon a world, there was a little girl.
There she sat all day, very busy at play.
Shiny marble blocks, keys and locks.
Fortresses to respect, locks to protect.
A genius child is she, she'll rule proudly.
No tears or frown, she'll not let them down.
She'll work very hard and tighten her guard.
Won't miss a trick, not even when sick.
All kinds of foods, and lots of good moods.
Warm blankets and home, no need to roam.
Nice neighbors and friends, the peace never ends.
What a world it will be, she smiled with glee.
Then her image was broken, with these words spoken;
"Time to finish your math, then take your bath".
Mom just doesn't see what a queen I'll be.
But 'til I finish my quest, I guess mom knows best.Written-09/09/2000
