Can I....

...use the computer? It's the first thing she said,
Sure. Why not. It's like a book that I read;
it was a single minded effort, that's what it took,
follow her lead, but help, it was all in the book.

So..we did Night Court and iCarly, nice combo there,
then we were off to adventure, an interesting pair,
Tim Hortons for breakfast, coffee only for me,
paper to Peggy, we're now on page three.

Over to Brewer, Wal-Mart's well known,
as a purveyor of magazines, some best left alone,
and a CD for music, she'd heard it before,
right on schedule, we're now on page four.

Now back in to Bangor, Target's the place,
nice package of pouches, gum, we're in a race;
now to Bullmoose Music, home of hot jive,
Night Court number three, finished page five.

Here we are at Staples, Eric is ready,
only four projects, please hold me steady!
Only four not five, I'm in a hell of a fix!
Go by the book!  It's only page six.

Now at the Mall, to go for a walk,
her mind is ticking, just like a clock;
Dad I want to laminate one more, it's like going to heaven,
but it is, after all, in the book on page seven!

She's got it all glued, put together just so;
and we're off, back to Staples we go,
she went in with one, and came out with two;
this is only page eight, between me and you.

Now back to the Mall, it's not far you know,
into Olympia Sports, the lunchbox's for show,
it has two compartments and a thing you can freeze,
it's only page nine and this thing's a breeze!

Now she's hungry, breakfast for lunch,
I knew it! I knew it!, or was it a hunch?
She ordered sausage gravy, as good as it's been,
we're on our way home, nice reading, page ten.

I went home and her Mom took over,
and Mom came right back, she didn't hover;
so now we're alone her Mom and I,
without page eleven, I don't think we'd get by.

So let's go push some buttons, you get to choose,
do them one, do them all, you've nothing to lose!
Pick a color, and color, in all of them delve,
we've got permission right on page twelve.

Love one another, Live and Let Live,
if someone is hurting - do you have something to give?
Together we'll make it, through good times and strife,
because we just read, from the book of life.

Pretend the sun's out!
