Three Noisy Boys--By Vivian Belford--Nigeria

Three Noisy Boys

They go from quiet to noisy in seconds

Have you switch sweet nursery rhymes

To loud appalling whines and howls

They crawl, creep, hide and seek

Three noisy boys they are

If all is quiet, hope they are napping

Else see sights that leave mouth ajar

If they are thirsty, give just a little

Else slip in their make-shift puddle

For life is now joy and jolt on reprise

But amidst their cries, pleas and pranks

Tantrums thrown at will and ease                                    

Part of you melts when you hear

Three noisy boys holler out

Mummy… without a frown
