Writers' Block: A contribution from our AWA Writers' Group members
I love your little little feet
and your little little toes,
your little little shoes
that match with little clothes.
I love your little little legs
with little dumpling knees
which wibble wibble wobble
like little sticks of cheese.
I love the little little button
in the middle of your tummy,
I love your little little giggles
and little thoughts; so funny!
I love your little little teeth;
precious yoghurt pearls
and your little little furry brows
beneath your bouncy curls.
I love the little little sparkle
in your dolly dolly eyes.
I wonder, how your little mouth
lets out such gigantic cries?
About
‘Little Little’ is from the children’s book 4 a.m. Raspberry Party which is a collection of 11 poems with hand-painted illustrations that celebrate the everyday magic of childhood moments, from flying eggs at the breakfast table to unexpected ‘parties’ at 4 a.m.
4 a.m. Raspberry Party is recommended for children ages 2-6 and their caregivers. You can listen to the audiobook for free on Spotify or purchase a physical copy of the book on Etsy or the Flossie Bossy store.
