After We Sleep


When you awake, we shall have chocolate cake Long walks, park visits, and horsey rides Fresh air, car trips We will savor the light There will be tears and smiles Board books , swings and snacks Always snacks , but don't tell Mom Of course, there will be tears and quivering lips I promise to keep you safe
Wrapped in softness Swaddled in love.

"But don't tell mom of course"
There is your best line
You are only as good as your best line = so consider the rest of the poem
You succeed when you are being original - stay away from the cliche's and rhyming scheme
Awake and chocolate cake are not the point of the poem.
