See Jane Run

Well this didn't turn out how I expected
...I guess that's the whole point of the poem though, so it's alright.

I've actually only ever read one (or maybe only part of one) Dick and Jane book in my life, and that was about ten years ago. I don't have a clue where the idea came from, but it worked out alright. And no, it's really not that long, you'll notice it's a particularly fast read =P

See Jane Run
See Jane laugh
See Jane squeal
See the way new parents feel

See Jane play
See Jane run
See Jane having so much fun

See Jane learn
See Jane grow
See her learn things you don't know

See Jane's doll
See Jane's pup
See her eager to grow up

See Jane lose
See Jane fall
See Jane learn to miss the ball

See Jane love
See Jane live
See Jane learning to forgive

See Jane hurt
See Jane cry
See Jane start to question why

See Jane run
See Jane play
See Jane swear she'll run away

See Jane's grades
See Jane done
See that airplane and she's gone

See Jane work
See Jane's grown
See? She's just fine on her own

See Jane's heart?
See it break?
See it's not your load to take

See Jane's books
See, Jane's through
See she just now misses you

See Jane trip
See Jane stand
See she's not the girl you planned

See Jane try
See Jane aim
See your daughter all the same

See Jane run?
See Jane race!
See you've never kept that pace

See Jane fight
See Jane win
See she's proud of what's within

See Jane's mess
See Jane's shelf
See at least Jane knows herself

See you'll never
Understand...
Wait a minute—see Jane's hand

See Jane's eyes
See that curl
See you've no choice, Jane's your girl
