being liked

light on your feet,
you do a little tap dance.
she likes it. she claps
her hands
and lets out a squeal.
she's easily
amused by your
foolishness.
you tell a few jokes,
make some balloon
animals.
you sing a song
while strumming
a ukulele.
she's giddy with joy
over your talents.
how easy
three year olds are
to like you.
