Yawns
A yawn has caught me by surprise.
Screwed up my face,
With mouth opened wide.
See all the cavities and fillings inside.
Momma said," You need a nap!"
Nothing I could say,
Would get me away.
Off to my bed,
It would appear.
My once yearly nap,
I might miss something, I fear!
I'll pretend to sleep,
Close my eyes,
Not let out a peep.
Let out a small snore,
Before Momma closes the door.
Then I'll arise,
Play quietly inside.
Two hours later,
Much to my surprise,
I woke up on the floor.
The yawn defeated me again,
Theres' always tomorrow to fight it off to the end!
