The Wonders of Punishment Time

The Wonders of Punishment Time

A Poem by Ice QueenJen
"

This was probably how my kids really felt when I would make them watch Heidi as a form of punishment! The names have been changed to protect the innocent, mainly me! Enjoy!

"


'Ahhh, here we go

being punished by

watching this movie, again'

Johnny thinks in his head


Mom calls this punishment,

I call it a time out!

Donnie thinks it's stupid,

so does my sister Sally


But me- I think she's pretty

so what if she has a weird name

she's cute, with her curly hair

wish I could dance like her too


Donnie's thinking ' this is so tough,

being punished with watching TV,

and a stupid movie too!

Oh well, it beats doing homework!'


Sally is just mindlessly staring

and thinking ' I broke that glass,

on purpose; just so Mom

would plop us three down here'

Ahhh, the wonders of being punished!
