Mystic Rose Rose Poet Limerick

Imaginary Fever

She's up early in the morning
While the children keep on sleeping 
Dreaming of homework 
And teachers that lurk   
The old alarm clock keeps ringing; 

His imaginary fever  
Makes his mom a non-believer   
Thermometer hot 
A deceitful plot 
He's a sly one, a deceiver.

Caren Krutsinger January 4, 2019 at 8:30 AM "dreaming of ....teachers that lurk" - yes, I do remember those days, as some gave me nightmares. I also remember hearing about other children warming the thermometer and fooling their mothers. I never tried it, as my mother knew everything. Fun to read, a nice reminder of a simpler time.
