A Little Boy Goes
A shoe’s taken off in the bathroom,
A sock’s' taken off in the hall.
The others come slack when he’s lying on his back
With his feet up against the wall. ,
His overall’s shed as he jumps on the bed,
His shirt as he starts down the stairs.
(There’s someone he missed, who has to be kissed),
Then his left on some chairs!
When he’s down to his skin and his mother’s all in,
Is this the last act of the drama?
Not so! Comes the bluff of being lions and stuff,
Till he’s ready to don his pajama.
And the blankets, in layers,
And the story and jmayers,
And the blinds to be drawn,
And the light to be blown.
And at last, when you think
' You are done
