A Little More Good,

Yucky
Youngest feeling yucky, tummy troubles, no fun, Time to time she seems to have this situ, humbling, bumbling dad, me, trying to help, Her mom seems more successful therein, So there she sits over the commode, no wanting her bed or couch, too risky, Feeling yucky is sucky, no doubt.
