THE PAINT HAS BEEN CHOSEN TO MAKE THE ROOM
BRIGHT,
PAPPY HAS BEEN PAINTING, FROM MORNING TO
NIGHT!
THE WINDOWS ARE CLEANED, THE FURNITURE
SHINES,
WE MUST GET THIS DONE, WE DON’T HAVE
MUCH TIME!
THE LITTLE GIRL TREASURES
ARE LOVINGLY
PACKED AWAY,
NOW THIS ROOM MUST REFLECT A MORE GROWN UP
DAY.
THE BEDDING IS NEW, PAPPY FURROWED HIS
BROW,
NANA, YOU WILL HAVE TO MAKE THIS ALL WORK
SOME HOW!
EVERYTHING REFLECTS OUR LOVE FOR THIS
SPACE,
AND YES, MY DEAR FRIEND, WE ARE IN A BIG
RACE!
ONCE WE GET STARTED WE JUST CANNOT REST,
UNTIL ALL IS DONE, AND WE'VE GIVEN IT OUR
BEST.
SO TORI AND CALO, THIS ROOM IS FOR YOU,
AND WE HOPE YOU BOTH LOVE IT AS MUCH AS WE
DO!
