I Spy: Island of Lost Toys

Please Mom Please Mom Please Mom Please?
I'll simply die if I can't have these!

A Magic 8 Ball, air hockey and darts,
A whoopie cushion that makes great farts.

A tiny scooter and a "Siamese Bendy" guy.
A fiber optic flashlight and magnetic checkers lie

Next to a water pistol and a Wooly Willy pen.
These and hundreds more, entirely forgotten.


Need more Kelley? A hefty collection of her great essays, What's the Matter With Mommy?, is now available on Amazon.com.
