A Mother's Lullaby

Twas the night before Tuesday

While I lay in bed

DIY crafts danced in my head

Knitting, sewing, and painting too

So little time and so much to do

I knew it was late and I needed to sleep

Yet my two little babies made MORE than a peep

My hubbie was snoring a great big haaa shooo

The baby was squeaking to join the noise too

I looked at the ceiling and let out a cry

Without some quiet, I surely would die

Down the stairs I tip-toed in grief

Maybe here I could find some relief

A mother’s lullaby comic I drew

It was at that moment I finally knew

Sleep would come in 10 or 20 years

Until then I’ll get plugs for my ears

Coffee… espresso… we’ll be best friends

The adventures of motherhood never do end
