It Was a Good Morning Until
It was a good morning until
kids outside threw big rocks into
our room, leaving glass neath the sill.
What hullaballoo we went through!
Auntie Em passed out with a yell.
Our uncle, who stood near his wife,
with his crutches - to the floor fell.
My cousin screamed, "Run for your life!"
He thought he was back in Iraq,
for PST syndrome he had.
Poor Grandpa he tried to attack.
I swear I saw blood. It was BAD!
