Babies

Babies have super-senses.

They know when you are about to sit down to dinner.
Or when you think about making a hot drink.
And even if they seem deeply asleep
They know when you lie them down in their cots.

Babies have super-senses.

They save their explosions for when you are late
For an important engagement.
Or when they are dressed in their best outfits.

Babies have super-senses.

They keep their milk spills for suits,
Black velvet, "dry clean only".

Babies have super-senses.

It is as if they know
That they can light up your world
With one
Big
Beautiful
Gummy
