Here’s one of mine:

Dinner

 

Mom and Dad went on a date

And left us on our own,

To scour pantries for some food

And make our meals alone.

 

Sally made a smoothie snack,

Using greens and berries,

Added glops of peanut butter,

Then some chopped-up cherries.

 

Billy went for meat and cheese,

And made a sandwich platter

With pickles and potatoes chips,

And “The toothpick that does matter!”

 

Alice didn’t care that much,

She just ate lunch’s food left-over,

With a book in one hand and a fork in the other,

As the last page grew closer and closer.

 

And by the time I went in too,

To make my dinner there,

What more could I do?

It just wasn’t fair.

 

For ice cream was all they left,

No spinach greens or celery sticks,

And so poor old me, I tell you,

Had no other choice in this awful, terrible fix!
