Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose (Chasing That Smell)

There was a funny smell-

And all was not going well.

.

It was in the house, and couldn’t be found-

As we searched everywhere and all around.

.

We looked inside and under the couch-

We looked in the dirty clothes laundry pouch.

.

We looked in the bedroom closet-

And no further, in finding the smell, did we get.

.

We searched in the food pantry-

Only good stuff, to eat, is what we could see.

.

We even looked out in the backyard-

Only to find Rover, who was always on guard.

.

We looked over the fence-

Which really made no sense.

.

So back into the house is where we went-

With much more hunting time spent.

.

And alas, we finally found that awful smell-

In a dark corner, an “OLD” Easter egg,

as far as we could tell.

.

It had rained, and we had held the hunt

inside-

Next time we’ll count them, to avoid a

smelly experience, true and tried.

.

There was a funny smell-

And all was not going well.

Modern Mother Goose-On The Loose # 539 (Where’s The Chocolate Milk?)

In the lunch line-
The chocolate milk, I could not find.
.
I looked here-
And, I looked there.
.
I took a big look-
Behind the head cook.
.
I took another look-
In every cranny and nook.
.
I looked under the table-
I looked everywhere that I was able.
.
I asked around-
And, a sad answer was found.
.
No more chocolate milk at school-
For it was a new golden rule.
.
Too much calorie-
Not good for you, not good for me.
.
In the lunch line-
The chocolate milk, I could not find.
