I WONDERED, WHERE'S MY PARLOR

I wondered where my parlor was,
So, I searched my house with a double look,
But, I never found where the parlor was,
Although, I did find a little nook,

I called in a construction expert,
To show me my parlor's spot,
He said drive stakes in my yard's dirt,
Because a parlor I have not,

The expert said he'd build me one,
Just off the entryway,
But, money I have none,
So, the expert would not stay,

Now, I sit upon my porch out front,
Dreaming of the parlor that would never be,
But, one thing came from my parlor hunt,
I gained a nook and the price was free.
