Skeleton

Going through my closet
In search of a lost scarf,
I found an old skeleton
Snuggling in a fluffy jumper.

Get out,
I told old lazybones.
Come and dance.
You'll have the rest of eternity
To sleep.

I wrote this poem,
Then I got frightened:
A poem about the skeleton!
What will Mum say?

Quick, I hid the poem
In the back of the closet
With the skeleton.
