“We’ll tuck them away
in here – don’t say!
Secret! Surprise!
for his special day.”

“Daddy – that drawer
– don’t open it more
– Secrets! Surprise!
nice socks from the store.”

[IP: secrets]

[this is based on a report by my mother of an incident in my (very young) childhood!]

Hello Rhiannon,

I like this poem very much.  Its simplicity is part of its appeal.but a lovely childhood memory just the same.

Thanks, Moya. The IP brought back the memory of being told this tale about myself in very young age, and it seemed nice to share a bit of humour! Rhiannon
