Boredom

Some are suffering from boredom
here's a little ditty for them:

if you have nothing to do
try, put down a thought or two
hands are feeling cottony?
break up the monotony
with a dark and stormy night
pretty maidens take a fright
and a knight in shining armor
come to rescue, he's a charmer

it's not hard to beat back boredom
little poems, you adore them
try it now, and you can beat it,
just please, please, don't make me read it
