You paint a beautiful, yet realistic, picture with your words - the opening stanza creates an idyllic scene and then reality hits with the dirty bib details.

I particularly liked the imagery in the third stanza

'constructing
a cookie crumb kingdom
from the castoff mortar
of the fig cake'

I think any parent or person who knows a young child will smile at this poem as well as enjoying the writing.
