Harry And The Closet

Hide and seek is not much fun when your brother is quite dumb.
His huge imagination put him in this situation.
He thought the closet a great place to hide
Since it was ginormous inside.
Although once I counted to 45,I couldn’t think of where he could hide.
I looked underneath his bright blue bed.
'What are you playing?” my mother said.
'Hide and seek” I replied, “but I can’t seem to find Harry” I sighed
I looked inside the cupboards and toy box also
Mum hurried to the phone and dialled triple 0
But Harry was in the closet,quiet as a mouse.”
Then hide and seek was banned from our house.
