Epic Limerick Sequence #1, 12/27/08

This evening my Mom hits the floor

I think, "Oh God, she's dying for sure."

And then in runs my son

Screams, "I called 911!"

Which turns out to be premature.

As my Mother, it seems, is just fine

And just needs a moment of time.

And fortunately

We never did teach

Our son to first check for a line.

So the lesson here?  Make sure that you

Teach your four year-old that you have to

1. Pick up the phone.

2. Get a dial tone.

Or 911's pretty much moot.
