Pull-Out Couches
Our apartment has one bedroom
And 900 feet of space,
But that is where our festive meal,
This year, was taking place.
As we cleaned and cooked, preparing
For the dinner and before,
We knew there would be a special treat
For all of us in store.
Both our grandkids would stay over
When our son and wife would leave,
Sharing sleep space on the sofa,
Not too crazy to believe.
While our daughter, too, would join us
On another pull-out couch,
All attesting to their comfort
To which each of them would vouch.
With one bathroom, we all managed;
We had fun and no one griped.
It was wonderful, for sure,
But now they’re home and I am wiped!
