Timmy's Tank

There was a baby boy named timmy Who didn't come from much But he had all he needed in his playpen He had blankets bikes toys and such But timmy missed the park and time with mom so much He had not been since daddy left For reasons timmy didn't know But war had found the country and mom often wept It always sounded like thunder with lightning in the sky If this is what kept daddy away All he could do is ask why Timmy didn't understand war had found his country And the dark days where death blocked the sun If he had he would of tried to make a plan But timmy was still to young to use a gun Now timmy was not completely lost his mind like a sponge He soon started to figure things out from watching the TV if it was on He learned the war had soldiers boats and planes too Maybe he could talk to the fighters And maybe he could convince them he needed his dad to So as timmy drank his bottle down He came up with a strategy He would be like a shadow in this town Something they can understand no matter how radically They thought What would he use to be superior not a boat or plane Cars are to basic guns aren't scary enough As mother patted his back into dream he sank Timmy decided right then he would use a tank Timmy used his tank at every base in the nation Nothing but white flags his plan was flawless But just one thing was off he started to loose patience he couldn't find his daddy or where they might have placed him Then timmy heard bombs in his dream but open his eyes to learn it was knocking on the door instead It turns out his planned had worked his dad was coming home At least thats what those man had said With their faces as resolve as stone Timmy was happy when he heard mam he coming home Here are his things so you will have then here and choose what he want once he here The he saw his mommas eyes full of tears and little did he know When moma held him close and his daddys things were near He couldn't wait to tell his dad bout his tank and his adventures I bet he will be so proud and know that we have missed him We laugh and play and take family pictures But for now I just sit and wait with this flag the army sent him
