Really cute little poem. I want to read it to my grandchildren as soon as we get together (next week) I think they will laugh.

Hi Brooke, I am always glad to share another of your children's poems. I like how the Speaker of this one sounds just like Edgar G. Robinson in "Little Caesar" when he says "cut a guy a break" and "the thief is clever, he got away scot-free."
Fun to see how he innocently denies the evidence. Rod

    Rod, thank you so much :-) I love Robinson and the gangster movies of that time. Brooke

That's cute. We bought some cupcakes at the store yesterday and seemed my daughter was sure having more than her fair share. This reminded me of that as she drops one frosting first on the floor. LOL Great rhythm and rhyme.

DEar Brooke,
Ah...the fox comes out of the henhouse with feathers on his muzzle:) Well, let's hope it wasn't Grandma's cupcake at any rate. Very charming write--Ted

A humorous plea of innocence from an obviously guilty child. The temptation has proved too much, something most kids must
have battled with after mum's just baked. The poem catches the innocence of childhood in well structured verse. A very enjoyable read.

This is a very delightful poem. The rhyming scheme enhances the piece. The word choice paints a vivid picture. I remember catching my second in the refrigerator when he was about three, mouth covered in Parmesan cheese. "what are you eating?" "Nothing."

Awww, cute ! And the photo fits in perfectly with the subject matter. It's evocative, witty and sweet - just like the missing cupcake (I am sure).

Very cute poem, and I love the pic as well. Written from the child's (innocent?) point of view is a great way to get this often accusatory point across. Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy the poetry about your family.
