Poem
A tomato and a potato lived in a fridge And a bunch of other foods lived in their midst Tomato and potato ruled this place And all the foods lived in grace. Of course until all the eggs were beaten And fried and seasoned and served and eaten For the eggs were royal guards Until their shells were smashed into shards But other than that life was pretty well But one day the evil Yam cast a spell A deadly disease that made you grow old, It was called “The Terrible Mold” All the bread started to turn white, And most of the berries were missing a bite, Mr. Swiss and his wife turned to darker blue, And so did Cheddar and Gouda too! Broccoli’s buds started falling down And Tomato and Potato were nowhere to be found! Lettuces leaves were coming down fast And many spinaches lives were passed, All the meats were freaking out Like the fish, the Bass, and the fresh trout And the steak, the chicken, and barbeque duck But they had tried and tested their luck They sat in their drawer from April to May Trying to find out if they could save the day. They acted as nurses, they acted as a friend And surprisingly not many lives came to an end, And when the meats finally saved the day, They remember that Witch Yam had a price to pay They defeated her and the rulers came back later And it turned out they were in another refrigerator! All the foods kicked them out of the place And from that day on they lived in grace. By-Ellie Wayland Age-10 years
