In the park, Mommy and me
Playing under a big huge tree
We come to the park every day
Just so I have a safe place to play
I do not have a yard where my home is
So the park is where I must play with all the kids
My home is way up high
An apartment building that reaches the sky
An elevator takes me up and down
Just so I can go in and out
I like the park, don't make a mistake
But I'd sure be happier if we had our own place
A nice big home with a yard to boot
I'd have a great time at the pool in my new swimsuit

I like the innoncence of this piece, as others have said it has a very childlike sound to it. I also found the meter slightly difficult particularly between the two lines:
"So the park is where I must play with all the kids
My home is way up high"
This was really cute I just had a hardtime with the meter. Some of the rhymes felt forced as well. No matter, it reads like what a child would say with simple words. Good write.
