Goodnight Moon- for Modern Moms

In the great “October Mist” room
There was a cell phone
And an Eco-friendly balloon
And computer screen
with a login for Zoom.

And there were a trio of “Build A Bears” sitting on beanbag chairs
And two rescue kittens
And a pair of waterproof mittens
A Barbie Playhouse
And a computer mouse
A sweater, two coats and bowl full of oats
And an overworked mother who was reviewing work-notes.

Goodnight room,
Goodnight groom
Goodnight work-from home-buddies, chatting on Zoom.
Goodnight Twitter
and Facebook too, time to leave the social media zoo.

First, put away the bears,
and dust the chairs
Feed the kittens
And wash the mittens.

Good evening Ebay
and Apple Pay
Let’s see what’s on sale today
Replace the worn socks, and find some building blocks.
Help organize the house
And locate a battery for the dying mouse

Find a brush and a comb
Look, now there’s garden Gnome.

When she’s done, she’ll grab the card
and mumble, that’s not too hard!

At the end of her spree she she’ll select Prime,
and her stuff will arrive in no time.
Now the order will be sped
and the overworked lady can go to bed.
Before she turns in for the day,
there’s one more thing she has to say.

Goodnight YouTube
and TikToc too.
Goodnight SnapChat
and Goodnight to you!
