Ten
Fingers and Toes
Attached to appendages
Of ten little boys
Ornery little guys
Devious and sly
Living at Number 10
Decimal Street
Running about
With ten times the mischief
One tenth here
And two tenths there
Torturing their teacher
She’s pulling out her hair
All with an exponential flair
Ten little bits of pain
In the neck and other planes
And in the evening
Back home to #10 again
Sound asleep in their beds
Divided by 2 sleeping head to head
Dreaming ten sweet dreams
Of monstrous plans
And tomorrow’s playful schemes

The daily cycle of a family expressed in tens. I love it.
