Back To School

Twas the night before school,
And all through this crib,
Bodies being bathed, 
And fingernails gettin did.

Q-tippin those ears,
And packin them bags.
Bringing out new clothes,
And poppin them tags.

Lunch boxes on the ready,
For their first day back. 
Hope they go to bed soon, 
Or somebody's gettin smacked.
