In school today

We finger-painted

Teacher let us take our

Paintings home

So I took mine and

Showed it to Mom, and

She said she liked it and

When Dad got home I

Showed him too, he

Said "That's cool

Buddy" and

They went to bed

The next day my friend

Paul said his

Mom liked his

Painting so much she

Taped it to the

Fridge

"Now,

Whenever she needs a

Glass of milk she'll

See it and

She'll think of me"

I don't like finger-painting, I'm

Not very good at it

About the Creator

Ryan Giese

I'm not formally educated in creative writing, or anything really, so don't expect much from me. I have, however, read bits and pieces of a poetry textbook I found at a thrift store.
