Mum's Fave

A destructive cuckoo in the nest
trouble causing what he do best
he'll put your patience to the test
with one eye open he like to rest

Loves being an annoying pest
mischief chasing with zest
I'd like to cough him of my chest
My temper he play with and molest

I held him longer on my breast
my favourite, my maternal lust
my confession hidden in his dust
Love so explosive, I could burst

This sounds ok for an over loved spoilt child, there are a few moves of words that an accent has caused a drift,
I shall copy and send to my Edit side and see what happens and will PM anything I do, Yours Ian.T
