Lollipop Series: Harry's Mommy
It's hard to be Harry's Mommy
He is like a raving Tsunami.
"Why didn't you do the homework Harry?"
"The letters were gulped by the papers, Mommy".
"Why is the bedsheet so messy, Harry?"
"It wanted to dance like me, Mommy"
Should I scold Harry for the lie
Or pat on the back of my tale-teller boy?
"Why didn't you finish the lunch, Harry?"
"Madam butterfly said she'd join me but missed, Mommy"
"Why did you hit Tom in the class, Harry?
"Was trying to wake him up from sleep, Mommy".
Should I scold Harry for the lie
Or pat on the back of this quirky boy?
"Teacher complained you're so naughty, Harry"
"She kissed and said I'm just like her son, Mommy"
"Where's all cheese in the fridge, Harry?'
"Photographer said cheese and I gave it all to him, Mommy"
Should I scold Harry for the lie
Or pat on the back of this quick-witty boy?
"Why is your shirt so dusty, Harry?"
"The garden soil was feeling lonely, Mommy"
"Why did you remove the car's mirror, Harry?"
"Doggy Donald wanted to see his beauty, Mommy"
Should I scold Harry for the lie
Or pat on the back of this waggish boy?
But Harry is a peppy and kind brainbox
He's so brave that he cares no blocks
I'm so glad to be his mommy
Will slowly explain what is fun and what is stormy.
