This---------------------------------Much

the birthday parade

Who loves a gift better than a child?

 A smudge of cake upon her chin.

Hello Kitty boots of pink and terry robe with swans,

topped off with a hat of straw.

Yes, children love

 this-------------------------------------------------much,

and payment is made with a kiss.

for a moment there I thought that you were comparing a 'gift' with a 'child' , dah, excuse me, no, this poem is gorgeous like the little girl featured in it...I felt quite moved.

Aye! Love kids, they're low maintenance, hehe. I do so miss mine being a little one.

Good stuff!
