Believe me or not my four year old who can barely write came running to me and said, “Dadda, oi, I made a song.” I couldn’t be prouder, and the following is her song as sung to me using, no doubt, the beats and essence of BJ Thomas-
Raindrops keep falling on my nose,
boing! Sun is following us, because
it is a rainy sunny day when
the unicorn rides a rainbow and come
to party with me, but come a little late.
Then I picked it up, made a small ditty for her, but truly she ‘made’ it better –
A Poem For My Girl
Raindrops fall on my nose.
Rainbow sneak a peek at me
through the open windows.
A unicorn knocks on the door.
Postman slips in a letter
written by my daughter
but he is on the wrong floor.
