Mari is a Little Lamb

Mari is my little lamb with curls so blond and frizzy
But everywhere that Mari goes it puts Mom in a tizzy.

She followed Mom to school today, an exception to the rule,
While Mom was doing PTA, she disappeared at school.

Mom started in the 5th grade hall, the last place she'd been spotted
She looked through all the classrooms, (by now Mom's heart was knotted).

Mom felt so scared and sheepish; she'd lost her little lamb.
Then out comes Eve from 2nd grade hall with Mari holding hands.

Now 2nd grade was no-where near where when at first she'd vanished,
But one thing's sure, from school now on, our little lamb is banished.

But that's not all, please be assured, our day has just begun,
With Mari here and everywhere, my life is full of fun.

We came home from school that morn to find a bottle open,
A half-drunk-up and all spilled out of Children's Ibuprofen.

Now mom was still half crazy for the shenanigans at school,
But when she saw the empty bottle she nearly lost her cool.

Mom called her local Poison Control, (she calls them all the time)
They calmly reassured her that her little lamb was fine.

They said she might by drowsy (no luck with that so far)
So while I say a prayer of thanks I'll enjoy my little star.
