A Poem by Joshua Godage

The teacher talked, talked all day

While I was dreaming time away

It was raining hard outside

I knew the weather channel lied

They said it was going to be sunny

Now this really wasn’t funny

I couldn’t believe my eyes

The puddles started to rise

Water flooded into the room

Was this about to be our doom?

Books were floating, bags were sinking

Kids were panicking, the teacher was thinking

‘Quick children’, the teacher said, ‘out the door we go’

When out of nowhere came a boat we can row

So the whole class got into the boat

While it was struggling to stay afloat

We paddled over to a man in a raincoat

He saw us and began to shout

‘Could you help me pull this giant plug out?’

At the same time as the rain started to stop

The plug gave in and came out with a pop!

While all the water went down the hole

We went back to the class and the reacher called the roll.
