The Dress

I wanted to make my own prom dress;

I knew what I wanted for the big day.

My mom did the work, I must confess.

When I got the fabric, I took a guess,

As to how it would look and how it would lay.

I wanted to make my own prom dress.

The pattern, unfolded was a bit excess;

After a few weeks, we learned what it had to say.

My mom did the work, I must confess.

Procrastinating a little bit less,

Would have done wonders for the load on our tray.

I wanted to make my own prom dress.

I should have thought about all of the stress.

With all of the stuff that came into play,

My mom did the work, I must confess.

It was definitely made to impress.

We were so happy at the end of the fray.

I wanted to make my own prom dress.

My mom did the work, I must confess.
