They Were Reading Our Minds Grandma

they were reading our minds, grandma
who? she asked, concerned
the aliens!
The ones from planet X474Z!

She knew they were having fun with their Uncle Larry.
He had a knack for making life fun.
She remembered when she asked him to watch his sister's children.
Now here he was, sitting around in an aluminum foil hat.

Not Planet X474Z! Grandma yelled.
She ran off screaming.
Delighting her grandchildren.
Completing their perfect day.
