Mama Bear Poet Rhyme

Ode To the Sandbox

Larry's in the sand box
Trying to build a castle
Johnny comes along
And gives Larry a hassle

Johnny says the castle is too weak
You need to make it more stable
Larry says I'm not a builder
So I'm just not able

Susie comes to check the castle
Sees them fighting with no work
Says she's getting angry
They are both being a jerk

Women are more likely
To be able to finish the task
They are more capable
There is no need to ask

Boys you need to act like men
Not get into quarrels and fights
When you learn to play nice
You will have some better nights

Richard Lamoureux November 17, 2014 at 10:22 PM You are hanging out with the wrong guys *lol* there are many of us who get along together and accomplish what we set out to do. Mama Bear November 18, 2014 at 4:52 PM I remember the sand box well. You three usually played well together so there were no problems That is why you always accomplish what you set out to do. You learned it at an early age. These guys know how to get along but it is more fun to bicker Love Mom
