Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 658 (Off That Couch)


The electricity went out-

And, we were suddenly bored, no doubt.

.

For we had to get off of the couch-

And, yes, that was a big ouch.

.

To act like a previous generation-

A time when TV was not a sensation.

.

To go outside and check out the yard-

To occupy our own thoughts, that appeared

to be hard.

.

To have an actual conversation-

Instead of relying on reality TV, to get the

job done.

.

For in reality we have our own lives to live-

Family endeavors in which to workout and give.

.

To focus on that sometimes takes a major

event-

Like the electricity going off, and forced time

together spent.

.

The electriicty went out-

And, we were suddenly bored, no doubt.
