BOOGLIE AND I


BOOFLIE AND I

Heard the
Shower
Come on
And a
Whistling
Tune. 

In my
Sleepy
State
I wondered 
Who
Was
Getting cleaned
Up.

I knew
My shower
Gel
Would
Most likely
Be
Used...
Sure enough 
I caught 
The whiff
Of it
Coming from
The bathroom. 

I sat up
Rubbing
Sleep away...

I slipped 
Out of
Bed
Tiptoeing
To the 
Bathroom 
Door.

Peeking in
I felt
Giggles
Bubble inside
Me. 

There he
Was,
The one
And only
Booglie!

Bathed,
Fresh and
Clean.

I picked
Him
Up
Toweling 
Him dry.
Then we 
Both
Curled
Up
In bed
Falling 
Asleep
Instantly...
My Boogle
And I!
