Princess in My Kitchen



Princess in My Kitchen

There's a princess in my kitchen
Who wishes she was big
She dances and she prances
Just like a silly pig.
She giggles and she wiggles
And talks all funny too
And if she ever does grow up
It'll break your heart in two.
She wears her funny slippers
Dressed for that special ball
And you just wish a wish
That she could just stay small.
There's a princess in my kitchen
She dreams, she talks, she wishes
But if you want to see her pout
Ask her to do dishes.
A little girl, sometimes so big
She can do so much
But other days you wonder
A little job makes her fuss.
There's a princess in my kitchen
She's turning 6 real soon
She loves guns and boy things
And can play with them 'til noon.
Her Grandma is quite worried
That she will always be
Just another tomboy
 At least until she's 23.
But I know her much better
And I can see her heart
I know she loves to hunt and fish
But she's a princess in her heart.
She's got Daddy 'round her finger
And loves to go on dates
He'll be her prince for now
But not forever, just you wait.
There's a princess in my kitchen
Growing up so fast
I'll enjoy this little princess
Before her time is past.

  2. Really? Six years since I first came to help you. (with my bumbling 15-year old ways. ;)) That precious little girl is getting so big. Such a sweet poem you wrote. :)♥ Dorcas
