Interrupted

Interrupted

 

Just me

Up in a tree

Lookin around

Seeing what I can See.                                                 

 

A puffy big cloud

thru a maple leaf shroud.

Surrounded I am.

These birds sure are loud.

 

My own private fort

away from home port.

My mind sails far seas

with pirates to consort

 

Mom calls out

More a shout

“Get out of that tree

Come now and don’t pout”

 

How many days

Cutting off my grand  plays

Does dinner intrude

on my adventurous ways.

 

Plodding home sad

I  stop feeling bad

seeing steak on my plate,

cause that’s totally rad.
