A Summer Project - Week # 2-3







 A POEM FOR THE HOME



There once was a crew with no clue;
They looked like they came from the zoo.
They wandered around
With thoughts so profound
Yet with no idea what to do.

The head-honcho came and did say
That this was no ordinary day
"I'll whip you into shape,
now pass me that tape
Let's see you work for your pay."*

The Pasload** it shot until hot
Then suddenly it stopped and would not.
Our tool may be neat
But Don's got us beat:
“Just give this here router a shot!”

First task was to pour the cement
Using many tools that were lent
Then putting up walls
And avoiding all falls
‘Cept Mitch who fell in the basement....***


*Disclaimer: my father is not a slave-driver. In this case, rythm and rhyme is more important than truth ;).
**Our handy dandy air-nailer...the much fought over tool...when it's in a working mood.
***True story. But he's okay...just a little sore.
