Ode to a Laundry Basket
I tried to resist it, I really did try,
but it taunted and tempted my innocent eyes:
"Come to me MLS! Sling 'round the clothes
Listen to me as I tempt you with prose!
This laundry is extra-especially fun,
it contains items from everyone!
A sweaty old shirt and a couple of socks,
a pair gym shorts your dad bikes in a lot.
A soft fleece blanket with pear puree stains,
You have no idea all the fun I contain!"
"No!" I screamed as I fled from the scene,
"I won't make a mess for poor Mommy to clean!"
But it was too late, the damage was done.
I don't even know how that darn basket won!
One minute I had all these noble ideas,
the next I was flinging the clothes with great cheer.
"Oh well," I thought as I sat midst the tees,
"I'll just clean it up before dear Mommy sees...."
