I Looked Out the Window and What Did I See?*

My kids swinging bow-staffs not so carefully!
Break had brought me such a big surprise,
Ninjas training right before my eyes.
The sticks came from the garden, out by the fence.
I've tried to throw them out and will do so hence.
I said no to a show, so they got back at me,
My kids swinging bow-staffs not so carefully!

*No children or parents were harmed during the activity that inspired this post. Any thoughts of revenge from the children were the creation of the lyricist and not a reflection their actual character. Mostly.
