Poem
OH you marbles in a jar!
Teacher wants us to guess how many of you there are
I try to count the ones showing, but I lose track
This silly circular jar, has neither a front nor back
The child with the closest guess, will undoubtedly score
The dangling allure of candy galore
After several examinations of size, girth, and magnitude
I devised a plan, I had to act rude!

I looked at the clock, five minutes left in class
It was time to act, I had to act fast
I jumped on my desk, pooting with my arm pit
Not stopping a bit, when the teacher asked quit
It worked!  I won!  A detention date!
Alone with a certain marble jar, was my fate

Ten minutes into detention
The teacher stood up, and said I’ll be back in five
Then up from my chair, I came alive
My tipped towed creep walk, had to look funny
But my marble guesstimate had to be on the money
The teacher walked back into the room 
And set a manila folder down
I was safe, number known, fake snoring, seat bound

Detention had just started
I was shocked when she said I could go
But I was gone 
Quicker than an arrow released from a bow!



After tossing and turning all night with no rest
I walked in the next morning, and turned in my guess
It seemed to me, to be, the longest day of the year
           But it came
When the teacher announcing the winner
 Announced my name

Clenching my fists
I shook them to the left And right of my head
Laughing to myself
“ I can’t believe it”, I said
As she walked to her Closet to award my Amazing feat
I noticed the manila folder On her desk 
Had my out-poking 
Allergy sheet

Highlighted Was the word NUTS…
 
How could this be
A years supply of Goobers 
Was awarded to me!
