ADA MARIE ADA MARIE Said not a word till the day she turned three She bounced in her crib and looked all around observing the world but not making a sound
She learned how to climb and made her big break with a trail of chaos left in her wake She ran through the day chasing each sound and sight and didn’t slow down till she conked out at night
Her parents were frazzled but tried not to freak as Ada grew bigger and did not speak still Clearly young Ada with lots in her head would have something to say when it ought to be said
