I Think I'm Going To Be Silly Today

Think I'm Going to be Silly Today


I think I’m going
to be silly today
and do things
in a different way.

I’ll put my shoes
on the wrong feet,
different colors,
one blue, one pink.

I’ll eat my sandwich
wrong side out,
jump up and down
and give a shout.

I’ll try on mamas’
evening gown
and watch TV.
upside down.

Since today
I’m being silly,
I’ll run around
all willy-nilly.

I’ll find my friends,
Lulu and Nogs,
so we can hop around
like frogs.

When I go
to bed tonight,
I’ll end my silly day
just right.

I’ll put my P.J.’s
on backwards
and say some silly
good night words.

Then I’ll sleep
upside down,
under my bed,
on the ground.

Then Mama
puts me back in bed
and kisses my silly
little head.

I love you sweetie,
she says to me,
even when you’re being
so silly.
