OH, where do they sell all the lilies and roses,The “pandies” and “pudsies” and funny snub noses,The dimpled wee “chin-chops” and fat pinky knees,Of the dear little, queer little, babies one sees?And what would they want for some soft golden curlies;A pair of blue eyes, and two teeth white as pearlies;A mouth like a rosebud, just made for a kiss?I fear they would ask me a great deal for this.And where is the gentle school-mistress who teachesThe mothers and grannies their sweet baby speeches,Their “lovies” and “dovies” and tender “coo-coos”That the newest new pet understands in two twos?
