Robbie

Robbie

A babbling brook on a bright summer's day

A puppy dog looking for someone to play

The smell of an old baseball mitt

A comfortable sweater that doesn't quite fit

Grass stained knees and old torn shoes

A cheery cure for a touch of the blues

Popcorn with cheese

A soft spring breeze

Lightning and thunder

A "kit" to crawl under

A great winter's storm

A fire nice and warm

Chocolate milk with a cherry on top

The combination to Santa's toy shop

Laughter and tears intermixed

A bicycle chain that needs to be fixed

A curious cat a brave little bear

A kitty cat lounging in long underwear

A room to be cleaned

What do you mean?

Cuddly and cute

Candy better than fruit

Heart and soul

A tootsie roll

All of these things meet

In a boy named Robbie
