Shed



I want to tell you
Something about my
Storage shed.
I went out there to
Get my lawn mower
When I was really
In bed.
To my surprise I found
A newborn babe looking
Up at me from my
Riding mower.
By the time the dream
Ended she was running
My snow blower.
And since it was only
June,
I woke up feeling
Like a loon.
