Happy Baby Poem

My wife works as an editor for a local newspaper and she can bring the baby to work in her office. Problem is, the baby is a draw for onlookers. People stop by and pick her up and play, then move on and the baby is left wanting more. So it can be a problem. So my wife wrote this:

If I'm a happy baby
And I am playing well,
Please do not disturb me
'Cause I'll give my mother hell.

But if I'm crying loudly
And making a big bad scene,
Feel free:
Pick me up and walk around
So all can hear me scream.

I think it's great.
