And the poems about my Filipina nieces continue. Remember they were just made for them, not really trying to make them publishable.

I have a niece name Robbie, so small and so lean
Seems all day long she just washes and cleans
Some time to herself I wonder if she has ever
With four children and the work, it would seem never
--
Despite all the work, she can still smile all day
Sometimes I wonder how she can be that way
With so little time, she still really doesn’t mind
To help you if you need it, she is ever so kind
--
I wish her all the good luck on our planet Earth
I know more than that she is definitely worth
I wonder if she knows now and forever will see
My favorite niece named Robbie she always will be.
