The effects of hunger... Wheee!

Growling and rumbling

In my tummy

Is becoming a distraction...

It's really not funny.

Nouns, and pronouns?

But this is español!

(Or Spanglish as my teacher puts it...)

Myhunger seems to be drawing a toll...

(On my mind...)

Wheeeee!!

My brain is wandering,

Thoughts idly going through my head,

The growling is, like, thundering...

Thirty minutes 'til food,

'I really HATE third lunch', I think.

Why can't we all eat earlier?

Hunger's making my happiness shrink.

Is my head even working right?

I'm thinking all in rhyme...

Being half-asleep doesn't seem to help,

Especially during school time.

Another quiz, I scribble it out,

With poems really on my mind.

I can't remember what I'm doing,

I'm really in a bind...

On my rambling mind goes,

Ever aimlessly...

I suddenly realize thatI've been writing

Rather mindlessly.

I shake my head,

Slowly look up, and yawn.

So much time I could when I could've been writing,

But now that time's all gone.

Wheeeeeee!

Five minutes are left in here,

Then off to lunch I go!

I brush away a happy tear... :-)
