So much play, makes Milo really have to go
WHAT….What is this, my sandbox is gone, OH NO!
All I see is water, What has my Mommy done!!
Looking closer hoping to find sand but there’s none!
Oh this could be a dream come true, oh how I wish
But there it is, I must be dreaming, there’s a fish!!
It was only a leaf, I should have known it couldn’t be
Hold on, hold on, my eyes must be playing tricks on me
A birdhouse usually means eventually a real bird!
I’ll take a look around, wait what’s that I just heard?
Could it be that sound came from up here?
But I have to go to the bathroom, Oh dear!
It was a family of turtles, they've taken over my sandbox
Just look at the little one down on those flat rocks.
Maybe if I sit here long enough , a bird or fish I’ll see
But Mommy, where the crap am I supposed to go pee?
Author notes
There's 16 lines and the first 15 go in line with your pictures as Milo see's his old sand box is gone or at least the way I saw him thinking! LOL. Line one is for pic one, line two is for pic two and so on and on, line sixteen I just put in for good measure, cause I'm sure by now Milo's bout to burst!
OPTION TWO, WHAT I SEE MILO THINKING AS HE FINDS HIS SANDBOX GONE.This is a beautiful pond you have here and I just love animal's, meaning a beautiful Milo as well!
