William The Conqueror

William conquered in his little war

His battles are brief since he’s only four.

He setup his toys on opposing sides

With a few reserves he craftily hides.

He sounds off a “charge”

And sounds a barrage.

The toys fight and fall

As William carefully crawls.

Narrating the battle as it rages on

Until all his stand toys and reserves are gone.

Examining the battlefield he squeals out “Yes!”

Then he opens his closet and toy chest.

Picking up the carnage he puts them all away

Until tomorrow, with a new war he’ll play…
