Just for you

I picked the reddest apple from the tree. 
It was the finest one that I could see. 
I saved it all except a bite or two. Just for you. 
I carried home the groceries from the store. 
I wanted to be helpful with a chore. 
I put them all away except a few. Just for you. 
Someday I’ll be grown up too. 
And if I can I’ll grow up just like you. 
I ate up all my lunch just like you said 
But I think there was a little too much bread. 
And so I left the crust when I was through just for you. 
Someday I’ll be grown up too. 
If I can I’ll grow up just like you. 
Just one more thing before I go to bed. 
And everything I have to say is said. 
There’s something special that I want to do
