BED INSUMMER (a parody of the famous poem by Robert Louis Stevenson) * In winter we stay up all night And listen to the children fight, In summer quite the other way When children go to bed by day * We put them down and got to see A movie we both watched in peace We heard the patter of little feet, On stairs as we went knocking knees * Doesn'tit seem ironic to you While we lay doing what we do, That we should have this time to play When children go to bed by day? * WordPlaya, April 17, 2010
