Trapeze girl of the Stripper joint Swinging out the window. Tourists enticing!
$20s tucked everywhere. $100 bill or three...
Little girl, little girl, Do you remember me... Merry-go-round at Recess...
Hide and Seek at noon.
Costumes and boas Left behind at dawn... She wakes her little Princess,
Packs a little memory...
Crunchy peanut butter And thick, grape jelly.....

Uh, this was NOT written to be a 'child's' poem...far from it!!! I'm simply talking to the 'child' the girl on the trapeze used to be....
Good Morning!

Doing what you gotta do in the Big Easy...keep off the welfare rolls, don't apologize, ladies of Bourbon St. You are making lots more than at Popeye's.
This poem had a great twist, and funny too, thought maybe there was a moral behind the poem something like this:
When sharing peanut butter and jelly sandwiches , make sure there's not a boa laying across the back of the chair! There might be more ,to that boa, than meets the eye! Fun Poem Cheers !!!
I liked it, haha. the rhyme was fun and constistent. "Perhaps he forgot or mabe didn't care either way But most children, they get hungry almost every single day If I coulda done it, I woulda sent him this new news" that sounds awkward and forced. "So when they found your body stinkin' of a bit more'n booze Mama took a drag and shrugged her shoulders at the news." news sounds overused. it gets sorta forced. work on meter.
