The Leak


Wrapped in blankets,
Pillow over head,
Jimmy couldn't sleep,
With the sound of the leak.

He tossed and turned,
even covered his ears,
But drip drip drip was all he could hear.

He tried to sleep,
But all through the night,
Drip drip drip,
 something wasn't right.

Jimmy rose from his bed,
When he saw the light,
Then drowsily he said,
"I'll call the plumber,
yeah that’s right!
He'll fix the leak."

The plumber arrives,
And Jimmy's amazed,
For all these days,
Lying restlessly in bed,
The loud dripping noise,
Was all in his head.
