Cacoepy ... Baby-talk

Today's word is "cacoepy" ... kuh-koh-uh-pee ... correct pronunciation or an instance of this; mispronunciation. (Dictionary.com)

Baby-talk
When they're very little,
Children speak a language sweet,
Their cacoepy brings smiles,
To even strangers on the street.

The things they say may linger,
For years after they're grown,
When parents then remind them,
They shake their heads and moan.

Those happy, precious moments,
Are bittersweet with tears,
And carried in their parents hearts,
Through memories, all their years.
