When sun’s just up,
though most still down,
and brother’s game
is ‘cross the town
and Mom’s not up
to laundry mounds,
Young Owens sports
the lion’s share
of smiles outside
‘spite morning air.
Says he, good sports
should not be bare.
For, when a game
of soccer’s viewed,
and when a mom’s
got quite the brood;
name of the game
is Don’t Be Nude.

That’s wonderful. ❤️ The grands said these games are a bit too early for them! 🌞 Maybe we’ll get a time later than 9 a.m. and they can watch.
