One two, skip a few...
here I go again!
Took a break, running late,
need to get to ten.
Find a rhyme, fall in line
three four five six seven.
Working late, can’t see straight—
how will I break even?
Number eight is written down,
number nine needs tweaking...
and this one is a total mess
—we’re not even “speaking!”
One, two, skip a few
here I go again
filling lines with nonsense rhyme
just to get to ten!

So ha! Yeah, not my best effort. What happens when you’re away for 3 days and have to play “catch up!” Inspiration credit to my great-nieces, whose "counting rhyme" is now and forever stuck in my head!
