Bedtime with Alana
It’s bedtime, It’s dark, It’s thirty minutes of settling Patty cake on my face My cheeks get planted, With kisses she’s so generously granted She fidgets and squirms Round my neck, her arms wrap tight, And again I sternly say “now go ni’night!” Again we go round, As we settle in, Her body turns clockwise, Her foot to my chin, She kicks and she nestles, Then turns round once more, My body is starting to be pushed toward the floor. Her arm round’ my neck, Her milky hot breath, Her heart beats next to mine.
