Un-Labor Day

Labor Day Part Deux

 

Labor Day's over
the dogs are all eaten

The parents all feel

As if they've been beaten

 
 

They took the day off

From work for some play.

Then cleaned and cooked

And did housework all day!

 
 

So now is the time

To return to routines

To work, to school,

To accomplishment dreams

 
 

It's back to school day

And moms may be glad,

A home with no kids

And even no Dad!

 
 

Next stop: October

And then Halloween,

With witches and goblins

Ghoulish play to be seen.

 
 

Until then my friends,

I'll go back to my day

Reading and writing

No more time for play.

 
 

There'll be dishes and sweeping

And homework and soccer

Then dinner and bedtime

Where are those new Dockers??

 
 

What fun it will be though

To see the kids grow

To learn, to reach, to

Surpass what we know.

 
 

Happy New Day!
