My inner child can't come out to play today,
She is punished to this very day.
For being a little blond haired girl,
With big blue honest eyes.
She must have smiled too often,
Or giggled at a cloud.
But I'm the parent now...
And I say laugh out loud.
Smile the biggest smile,
That could light the very world.
For little angels should be heard.
So giggle to your hearts content,
And run up and down the stairs.
Play with all the puppies,
Get mud in your curls.
And for heavens sake,
Give me plenty of big hugs,
Every chance you get.
A kiss and a little dance,
And off you go again.
So play on, my tender inner child,
Till the sun begins to set,
And bedtime for the weary,
Comes for sleepy eyes.
Then rest in precious slumber,
My little angel girl.
For I love you little one,
With wisping blond hair and big blue soulful eyes.
And I say...please come out to play.

Good luck in the contest and best of luck in the future.
