<div class="poem"><div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">My baby brother's fat, as fat<br/></span>
<span class="i1">As any boy can be,<br/></span>
<span class="i0">And he is just the sweetest duck<br/></span>
<span class="i1">That ever you did see.<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">I count the dimples in his hands<br/></span>
<span class="i1">A dozen times a-day,<br/></span>
<span class="i0">And often wonder when he coos<br/></span>
<span class="i1">What he would like to say.<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">I comb the down upon his head—<br/></span>
<span class="i1">He hasn't any hair,—<br/></span>
<span class="i0">It must be cold without, and yet<br/></span>
<span class="i1">He never seems to care.<br/></span></div>
<div class="stanza">
<span class="i0">It is so nice to see him kick,<br/></span>
<span class="i1">He has such pretty feet;<br/></span>
<span class="i0">I think if we might eat him up<br/></span>
<span class="i1">It would be quite a treat.<br/></span></div>
