The father smiled to see his child Come running to his side. "Please tell me, Daddy, what is meant By that word 'sex'", she cried. He looked aghast at this sweet girl - She was but eight years old; Too young, he thought and innocent To break this childhood mould. She should be playing with her dolls Or other toys she had Instead of asking questions such As this one of her Dad. With openness and honesty An inborn family trait, This Dad explained the facts of life Quite candidly and straight. His discourse finished, thankfully, He kissed her on the cheek; No word she'd uttered all the while, But now began to speak: "I didn't think my question was A matter so complex, For Mum just said to tell you lunch Is ready in two secs."
