As Usual! Poem by Della Perry

I asked Dad to take the ironing up the stairs
Dad asked Ian to take the ironing up
Ian asked Sean to take the ironing up
Sean asked Jake to take the ironing up
Jake is the dog!
As usual I took the ironing up the stairs!

I asked Dad to let the dog out into the garden
Dad asked Ian to let the dog out
Ian asked Sean to let the dog out
Sean asked Peter to let the dog out
Peter is the budgie!
As usual I let the dog out into the garden.
