Moving Day - Original Poem

Shuffle around as another passes by,
Make room while friends come
And ask to help lift something.
Then everyone's waiting around
As the couch is carried away.
It blocked the path,
But we made it past soon enough.
Soon we're driving down the road.
Caution lights flashing,
We drove quite slow.
Dressers and beds
And miscellaneous items all boxed up,
Six vehicles drove to town.

Then the shuffling began again,
More asking if they can help,
We wait for something to carry in
And the couch is once again
In the way.
Every item in the room,
Now it's time to re-arrange.
Hours pass and soon they go.
Leaving me, my brother, and his girlfriend.
We unpacked boxes and found
Where each item should go.
Dusting and cleaning came then.

That was my brothers first
Moving day.
