Little Boys, Sometimes

 

 

Little boys sometimes leave the seat up

 and have dripping wet hands even though they dried them.

Little boys sometimes put their clean clothes in the laundry

and wear their dirty ones again.

Little boys sometimes nod and say okay

even while their finger is still in their nose.

But,

 Little boys always skip when they are happy

and sing to themselves in the bathroom.

Little boys always do things just for the feel of it

and willingly share their treats.

Little boys always forgive right away

and are brimming with ready love.
