Heart Book 6

a sticky sticky red heart
mum told him to be careful with it
don’t u go getting that everywhere now
i won’t get u another one

a messy sticky little red heart
he shouldn’t have got one in the first place
‘cause it made SUCH a mess

he got it all over the lounge
big sweet sticky stains that we’ll never get out

and then wherever he crawled
he left little sticky red drops behind him

it made a mess of the nice clean white walls
little red handprints and patches
all up & down the hallway

it even got on the dog
who hated having baths
even at the best of times

just one big sticky mess
we’re never gunna get it all out
just knew it would happen
i just knew
