I IS SMILING
I IS SMILING
Everything always is:
'I is...'
As in:
'I is...happy! '
'I...is...tired! '
Even to negate it, is:
'I is...not tired! '
'I is...not go bed! '
(with Churchillian scowl
& foot stamp for emphasis) .
I used to love
your construction
the simple syntax of your
sentences:
'Tilly & Mummy...is girl! '
'DΓ³nall DΓ³nall is...not girl? '
Now I is
remembering you
just as
you was
recall your words
just as
they is
& I
...is smiling.
