Acrostic Poems

Telling the kids to wear their hats like teaching kids their abcs

Opening the computer cases with kids swarming it like a pride of lions jumping on their prey

Teaching kids that stare at you like you have a blue face

Arguing with the teachers that you want to sit next to your friend like a desperate beggar

Rambling on and on about the people in history while the kids groan like they have a really bad stomach ache

Abandoning the class like a teacher looking to become sane again

Nagging the teacher like a five year old needing to pee

Understanding the questions like a kid with a pea sized brain

Intriguing the class with a science lesson as messy as a volcano

Pacing back and forth waiting for an idea like a lion waiting for food

Obsessing over word choices like a queen and her hair

Entertaining kids like a clown with a red nose

Toughening the poem with details like glue thickening cardboard

Rhyming like Dr Seuss

Yawning after a long day of writing, like a baby at 10:00 pm
