Mitchell Brown School Day Afternoon

Mitchell Brown School Day Afternoon

As I walk home from school today,

sometimes I wish I could stay away,

and live in the forest to serve myself,

if only- what about elves,

of course how would Santa find me,

no chimney to find and deliver,

and I swear every time I touch a tree I’m sure to get an splinter,

I could befriend some wolves,

and make a lot of friends,

I’d be with them all day and night until the very end,

but what if they’re to eat me,

so surely I’d be dead,

so now I have decided,

to live my life instead,

as I walk into my house,

Windsor starts to yip,

I head down to the basement,

and I begin to do a flip,

my sister comes downstairs,

and she begins to skip,

she skips around me chanting,

"Oh, I want to play too,"

I tell her "Go away now,

these games are not for you."
