From a Three Year Old

by Sondra Ball

 

Daddy, I'm hungry.

I will do anything you say.

Just feed me today.

 

Daddy, I'm cold.

I will do anything you please.

Just don't let me freeze.

 

Daddy, I'm caged.

I will do anything you demand.

Just let me walk and dance.

 

Daddy, you're right.

I deserve everything you do.

I ask for it.
