Into A Darkened Room.

Well I took the plunge!

I had been saying for weeks,

It may even have been months,

That I would do it tomorrow,

Well yesterday that tomorrow came.

I went into the shed and searched

Searched for the lawnmower.

I found it sitting there

Covered in cobwebs and dust,

I dragged it out into the light,

I am sure it looked at me

With a puzzled expression

As if to say “What are you doing?”

Well I set it up and pressed the button,

And blow me it started.

So there I was on this tomorrow

Mowing the grass.

The neighbours didn’t believe it!

Neither did I!

I did finish the mowing and was pleased,

But then I went and had to lay down,

Lay down in a darkened room!
