On the 14th Day of Christmas - Losing my mind

All I wanted was a pen 
but could I find it? 

No! I just get lost in this labyrinth
that is my mind. 

A bag of spice drops yum, yum 
oh no, look what I have done 
I better straighten all these things 
oh look it's 
El -mo.

What was it I was doing in here?
It must be that my phone was beeping. 
That's too loud when kids are sleeping.

Just a minute on Facebook 
1 more for e-mail 

How did I  end up in the garage? 

There's leaves everywhere 
and some goo on the stair 
where's the broom 
oh BIRDSEED they must be hungry.  

The counter is clean
the highchair tray is a dream
and look at my swans on the wall

the bus will come soon
bringing home a different tune 
homework, chores, t.v. and playtime 

pick up the bottle 
the baby's awake
the trash can is full 
listen? 
Is that an earth quake 

OH, Daddy is home 
lots of squeals not a moan

How are you doing today dear?

As I wipe away a tear
he says NEVER fear 
just come sit right here on the sofa

and as I sit down 
and I look all around 

I remember 

what I'm looking for.... 

a pen, that work's, and is not pink! 

So I can address my Christmas Cards!
