The Great Compromise

When it’s the weekend at my house
We changed a few rules that I’ll tell you about
Put our heads together, tried to be wise
…….…It’s called a compromise

Saturday morning cereal
The sugary kind is what you’ll find in my bowl
Weekdays the healthy stuff only flies
……….It’s called a compromise

Hey you, do you want to ride bikes down the street?
No thanks, but maybe later…..maybe you’d like to come swim with me?
How bout we both ride bikes down to the lake?  Wouldn’t that be neat?
What a surprise, we just made a compromise

Dinner is almost halfway done
May I be excused?  Not till it’s all gone
Two more bites?  Ten more bites!  How bout 5?
……..The dinner compromise!
