Sleep Tight Alfa

It is night in the forest

and all there are glad,

that the Alfa is back

safe on her pad.

The black tank is empty

the gray's good-smelling.

The Alfa's available

for forest driveway dwelling.

The traps are all set

in the coach and the bays,

waiting to catch

any creature who strays.

Peanut butter is smeared

for the mice and rat,

be they soft and small

or mean and fat.

Sleep tight big Alfa

and have a good dream,

of friends you have met

near mountain and stream.

We'll go out again soon

and you'll have your day,

to carry your family

far far away --
