A Childs Story Time Poem by Phil Soar

'Tell me a story Daddy'
Those words were magical
So I made stories up for him
That all were cock and bull

I loved to hear him giggle
So I conjured up some rhyme
With worms and things that wiggle
That he asked for all the time

I gave them lots of silly names
Involved them in adventures
And made them play some naughty games
That would offend the censors

But children have such open minds
And the smiles these rhymes created
Made him wait for story-time
And left him quite elated
