Very Short Stories And Verses For Children — My Little Brother

MY LITTLE BROTHER.

My baby brother's fat, as fat As any boy can be, And he is just the sweetest duck That ever you did see.

I count the dimples in his hands A dozen times a-day, And often wonder when he coos What he would like to say.

I comb the down upon his head-- He hasn't any hair,-- It must be cold without, and yet He never seems to care.

It is so nice to see him kick, He has such pretty feet;

I think if we might eat him up It would be quite a treat.
