'S ' DAILY POEM
JES’ PEEKIN AT YOU—-
There really is pleasure in very
full measure in watching cute
things kiddies do. A tot has much
fun, keeping dad on the run, in the
home game, “Just peekin’ at you.”
A youngster will stand in the
window at night ’cause he knows he
will soon have a treat. He’s peekin,’
his face on the pane is pressed tight.
’Till daddykins comes down the
street.
And then daddy comes and he
opens the door and a little voice
sharply says “boo.” Os course he
is certain that out from a curtain
a tot’s playin’ “peekin’ at you.” ,
Then, all evening long there’s a
patter of feet as soonyboy runs
here and there. He gently goes
sneakin,’ while playin’ at peekin’;
he hides to give daddy r. scare.
This “peekin' at you” is a won
derful game and it lasts till the
evening j s through. Then sonny's
in bed, covered just to his head, so
he still can play “peekin’ at you.”
