TWO LITTLE BOYS

TWO LITTLE BOYS by Maria Mize

Cody likes fire trucks,
Tyler likes heroes.

Two little jelly beans,
    dancing on our hearts.

Mommy and daddy love them,
      and work hard every day.
They go to school and work
      so there’s not much time for play.

Yet they love them dearly
      with hugs and kisses and toys.
They have big plans for these two little boys.

Cody is 3 and Tyler is 6.
They play in their backyard
      in a treehouse made of sticks.

Bean is their watchdog.
      She’s in the treehouse too
while daddy fixes supper
      and mommy is at school.

Its time for bed now ----
      the moon peeks down from the sky,
      and Mommy is home.
She gently tucks them in and
      says good-night.
