Shortly after noon,
I finished my hours for the week
And settled in for the extended
Two and a half day weekend.
I hadn’t gotten a box all week,
But stopped checking at 4:30.
It was the weekend!
At 5:30, Caleb came in to say
That Joe and Abraham were bringing a box,
Too big for him to lift.
Then, out the window,
I saw those two intrepid boys,
Bringing the largest box of books I’ve seen,
Rolling in down the huge slop,
Setting on the lip of the wagon.
Sixty-five pounds of unopened amazingness.
It will sit on my counter.
After all, it’s the weekend!
