Little Brother

LITTLE brother full of glee, With dainty hand and dimpled knee, Chubby little laughing boy, Father’s pride and Mother’s joy!

Ringlets gold on shapely head, Smiles that break ere tears have fled, Eyes of blue that open wide, Wondering at the world outside!

Merry spirit, sweetly wild, Why are you, my precious child, Dearer far than any other Loving sister’s little brother?
