Average Home School Day
Get up, start workin', no fun or play,
Looks like this will be the average school day
Sit down at my desk, grab paper and pencil
And seizing my brain, a useful utensil
Working for hours that feel like years
I wish that Saturday soon would be here
Finally finishing, I feel so free,
But I was mistaken, my mom calls me
Now here I'm sitting, feeling no glee,
Lo and behold, I'm folding laundry!

HAHAHA!!! My family got a good chuckle out of that.
Haha, great poem Ben!
Great thoughts from Benjamin! You have a great family!
I think Ben has a natural talent!
What talent Ben has! It'd be fun to hear his poem set to music; now if only you knew someone with musical ability. Hmmm... ;)
"Lo and behold" - fabulous!

Found this by accident, but what a great poem. Benjamin has some good talent and his mix of comedy into it makes it all the more enjoyable.
