Naptime

What can be done when the kids take a nap?
Clean up just a few of the toys;
Then load up the dishes, provided you don't
Make a whole lot of wake 'em up noise.

Catch up on your reading (the paper or book)
And work on the crossword a bit.
Answer an email or talk on the phone
Or stare off into space as you sit.

Of course, if you're somewhat obsessive, like me,
You can rein in your thoughts as they roam.
Find your notebook and pencil and maybe, voila!
If you're lucky, you'll finish your poem!
