Mommy Seuss

I know that you love

The Cat in the Hat

I read it to you

Most days just like that

But honestly I’m tired

Sometimes I think it’s too long

It’s just hard when you’re wired

Asking for books and a song

So your tired and old Mommy

Has come up with a dark scheme

Which I know will make others

Curse baja-boo-baja-beem!!

Next time you choose this book

For the hundred and tenth time

I’ll skip pages and not tell you

Trust me you won’t miss a rhyme

I know that that's not

What ‘good’ mommies do

But hey!  I could be worse

‘Tis no reason to sue

I’m sure you’ll be fine

There's no real damage done

Mommy just wants a shortcut

And still let you have fun!
