In a few buildings
Flyers she pins up.
A mother calls her,
Spiky almost throws-up.
She got a job
To watch a 7 year old.
The little girl was pretty bold.
With lots of energy and imagination.
Spiky stays calm and patient.
At times she tells the girl, "No!"
And "Wash your bowl."
Back and forth they would
Persuade one another.
Through the running around,
Disagreements,
And Spiky's few achievements,
Somehow and some way
The little girl likes
Whenever Spiky comes to play.
