Busy Hands

Scribbling on walls
In Evan's notebook
Or Marianne's journal 

Opening then closing
Doors, drawers and cupboards
With a slam and a bang

Grasping for leverage
To climb upon
The refrigerator or piano

Pulling and grabbing
The doggy's tail
Or sister's hair

Finally at bedtime
Blowing kisses
And waving goodnight

Clutching her dolly
Gently patting mama
Still at last
