You run like a Tiger!

You run like a tiger
On to my lap, so gay
This pants is small too, Ma,
Proudly you say.
Buy me new shoes too,
Says the twinkle in your eye
I’m growing up, you know Ma
I’ll soon be very high.

“tall”, I correct, channeling
My sadness into pride
Wish I could stop the time
Wish I could turn the tide.
