 it was kind of a bit odd

when a tiny tot
cooed at me and smiled
while he was 
comfortably sitting
in his mom's arms
as both of them
were waiting for the dad
this happened
at the store
while i was preparing
food for my pups
he cooed once more
and giggled
so i looked up
and saw his cute 
tiny dimples
on his pretty face
his mom laughed
when she realized
her baby was having
his own kind of fun
so i smiled back him
as he has already
captured my heart
his eyes brightened up
as he flashed me
his gums
and i melted right there
right there on the spot
it was as if 
he knew his effect
he started behaving
like a lil' flirt
chuckling, giggling
saliva flowing
but such an adorable
itsy bitsy teensy babe
his dad finally arrived
also bewildered by his child
"he got a bit bored
so he's playing 
eye to eye with
the lady at the store"
i heard his mom said
"hey!" i called out
with a pout
to which i coyly told her
in almost a whisper
"he smiled at me first"

A great little story poem with a wonderful subject of how babies will sometimes be attracted to something new as though it were familiar and joyful like greeting their parents. Babies seem to have an innate ability to know, simply by looking at someone's face whether it will be pleasant or not.

Enjoyed and wish that I had an opportunity to be seen in that situation, too. A bit jealous?

I have often written about the lure of infants and their endless charm, they are so irresistible. Your poem is equally charming and heart-melting.

Dropping a bombshell like those free-roaming chickens that I was notified of that she had to go back home and drop another egg, but the hen would be back resuming her duty without a condom cackle and ready to incubate another and another. what is it about bigamist roosters that keep several hens? While the rooster was preoccupied with mating stray hens, we painted an Amish scene on the canvas in the attic, one that eventually was made into song about the old man down the road. It pays to plan for the future and eating off a nice set of plates. Nice portfolio, baby.

A charmer. Yes, tots like that are endearing to all but the most jaded heart. Happy you had the experience, for it will stay with you... I'm sure.

In the Whirlwind by Tichaona Chinyelu

In the Whirlwind is a poetic storm that frees history from the cages of corruption and puts it in the hands of everyday people. Words are weaved into a new fashion statement that has nothing to do with runways but everything to do with projects!
