My Mother tried to trick me, right after I ate lunch.
I got my favorite blanket and a book – okay, a bunch.
Together we began the book – well, Mom would read and I would look.
She thought this made me sleepy, while we snuggled close in bed.
But it’s Mom who soon was tired and her eyes drooped as she read.
Eventually the reading stopped, Mom’s eyes had closed, her head had flopped.
Luckily I can read myself so I pick up where she left off.
But gosh my bed is cozy and my pillow feels so soft.
I’m done the book, can’t trick a kid – on second thought, maybe sleep I did.
