NaPoWriMo Day 5: A Mother's Refrain*

I see you have your star, clever boy –

Don’t puke on it, now.

Those are your sister’s new shoes –

Please don’t puke in them.

Yes, that’s Daddy’s laptop –

Not a good thing to puke on.

And no, you can’t chew on the mouse, either.

Mommy’s just done four loads of laundry, see –

I’m wearing a nice clean shirt for once.

Oh, look, you’ve just puked on it.
