Analysis of Baby Knox



Little child Knox
With also; all those building blocks!

How shalst you and my lively little Michelle
(mulatto now and full grown) stack them?

Please, pretty please strive to stack
Them high that neatly little
Fist tiny Knox, for as only the writer-
Your Granna to sit and stack them again!

You special adorable Grandson of mine and near
Hearts, and forever with prayers and guidance to
Heaven divine!

In Christ's name may you arise and ascend to Heaven.

Lisa Ann Wilson Heath
