LITTLE CHILD OF TWO

                Little child of two,
                How do you do?
         How can so much, much, much noise
                Come from one the size of you?

                Little child of two,
                Why so blue?
         Have all the troubles of the world
                Fallen right on top of you?

                I wish I knew
                What’s bothering you.
         You cry and fuss and carry on.
                Please tell me what to do.

                Are you worried about life?
                I know it seems so strange.
         Perhaps you’re troubled and confused.
                Perhaps you need a change.

                Little child of two.
                Just wait, you’ll see.
         You fuss and cry, but by and by,
                You’ll grow up to be three.
