Monstas

 Monsta's

John Clare Stokes

There she was

The near teen infant

Still so darling 

In the parents sight

Running rough shod

Over them

Harassing the yard animals

To near death

And it was precious 

In their sight

There the two terrible twos

Were

In adult conversation 

With mom

Pitching all their

Temper tantrums

Mom being sent to her

Room

For giving in

The umteenth time

And there was the 

Grandmother

Pleading with the little

Grand baby

Please obey

Please obey

Granny don't want

To go to her room too.
