Summer of Verses – Poem 10 – I forget…Is it Naptime?
I woke up early…too early…
Did I sleep OK?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
I wanted snacks and more cereal…more cereal…
Did we eat breakfast?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
I didn’t eat my lunch…yucky lunch…
Did we have food?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
I want to go swimming…too hot…
Do we have a pool?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
I want ice cream for dinner…chocolate ice cream…
Did we buy cones?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
Chicken again…yucky chicken…
Do we have macaroni?
I forget…
Is it naptime?
I want three books before bed…not two…
Have we read these?
Oh, I forgot…
We missed naptime.
