Sweet little Josephine
Never seen sex on the movie screen
Didn’t know bad
Never been truly sad
Sweet little Josephine
Only thirteen
Loved jumping on the trampoline
Never worn Maybelline
Still just wants to be a fairy queen
Sweet little Josephine
No longer just a preteen
Too cool for Mom and dad
But really knows they're not so bad
Sweet little Josephine
Still young at fourteen
Wants to read a teen magazine
Her parents want her in quarantine
Cause she’s still their little JellyBean
Sweet little Josephine
Won’t let her parents intervene
And she won’t wear plaid
Cause she follows the fad
Sweet little Josephine
Already fifteen
Wants to change her name to Maxine
In a rock band she plays tambourine
And spends her weekends drinking caffeine
Sweet little Josephine
Saving up money for gasoline
The garage is her launching pad
Spending all her time with her boyfriend Chad
Sweet little Josephine
Can hardly believe it’s her sweet sixteen
Always at the front of the scene
Her life seems almost serene
As she is crowned prom queen
Sweet little Josephine
Makes all the girls turn envy green
Catches the eyes of every lad
But has never forgotten Chad
Sweet little Josephine
But now she’s seventeen
Dates a boy on a submarine
Parents want to keep her squeaky-clean
To them she’ll always be like nectarine (they know she’ll never be obscene)
Sweet little Josephine
Her future is no longer unseen
Almost a grad
Look at the times she’s had
Sweet Josephine
Not so little now that she’s eighteen
Her smile has a special glean
Her life has a gorgeous sheen
As it prepares to really convene
Her parents can’t believe
The woman she’s become
Whether fairy queen
Or prom queen
Or even queen of the college scene
She’ll always be their JellyBean
Sweet little Josephine

This couldn't be a proud parent talking about their beloved child, could it? It is a great poem. She is proud I am sure.
Welcome to our YPDC family. I hope you will enjoy the talent and the wonderful people here.
Smiles,
Rita |
