Excerpt from a poem by my 6th grade son:
If I were in charge of the world
You wouldn't have rich
You wouldn't have poor
You wouldn't have dog fights
Or "Maxed out credit cards"
You wouldn't even have credit cards
He says it was inspired by Judith Viorst, so now I need to look up her work.
Some of it was more typical kid stuff:
If I were in charge of the world
I'd incinerate homework,
Schoolwork,
Grades, and work overall
If I were in charge of the world
There'd be getting paid for nothing
Trainable cats, and
Auto learning helmets.
