Yes Ma'Am "yesterday"

I didn’t sleep last night; Ma’am was in a very nice mood Yesterday That scares me : would punishment be twice as bad today Millie was the only one all she got was a “unheard” verbal warning I’ve lived here 10 months next week, I’ve never seen such a Monday I awoke very early yesterday ,I wanted to talk to “DAD” before work As Dad and I were talking : Ma’am in sheer silk pajama’s , my eyes decline Good Morning “Mom” (we could say “ Mom” when DAD was there) I’ll be going upstairs Ma’om I hope that sounded like MOM : “Please” Oh, Harry ; you don’t have to go upstairs : Talk with your Father “Eggs Anyone”?? My Heart is beating quickly , Something is wrong, Ma’am being nice???? In front of a child, in front of his “DAD” six Years old and I could feel Death As The Station Wagon backed to the end of the driveway “ See you on the weekend” "GOODBYE DAD" as I turned the sunlight shinning On Ma’am's transparent form Harry go upstairs and wake everyone up It’s family Breakfast day ( NEVER BEFORE) If only We could have seen the future Would any of us got out of bed “TUESDAY “?? TODAY life starts again Evil was thwarted What will Tomorrow BRING? Maybe the family from the dreams of my YOUTH That FAMILY is YOU : “POETRYSOUP”

I see from some of the comments that this is just a story HG. But what a story, do you write novels. I found it very interesting story! A very creative mind it seems here. Sincerely, Moses
