Eve Roper Poet Free verse

Pulling the Wool Over Mamma's Eyes

Pulling the Wool Over Mamma's Eyes

Mamma's eyes were as big as the moon

and a nose like a hound

When her children sins were black as night

The hound lost its scent and she became blind as bat

They could pull the wool over her eyes as easy as pie
