The Chaos Chorus

Sunday, March 17, 2013





The sun has set not long ago
Now my time to relax and sew
Minky blankets, bibs and bags
I work until midnight nags

Exhausted now I go to sleep
But in three hours I hear a peep
Nursing babies, soothing fears
The night wears on, dawn appears

Children wake up, wanting food
I stumble out of bed, I brood
A shower, ha! Makeup, me?
I’ll simply live in sweats so free!

A messy house that never goes
A pile of never ending clothes
Kids are fighting, TV’s on
“Time to start” I sigh and yawn

School time, the books come out
And like a bunny I hop about
Helping this one, and then the next
Finally, its time to rest

OUTSIDE TIME! I exclaim in glee!
Time for coffee, time to breathe!
At my computer, so still, so calm
I talk with adults, a soothing balm

The day wears on, it keeps me hopping
Never ceasing, never stopping
Dinner hour, the time I dread
Why oh why can’t I go to bed?

7 o clock, bedtime at last
Story time, asleep so fast
These little monkeys I love so dear
They are the reason for my cheer

For although I’m tired and weary
The bags under my eyes are oh so dreary
I would not have it any other way
And so I start another day.
