Lunchboxes
In the lockers of the classroom desks
You find lunchboxes, of all shapes and forms.
Some replaced from time to time,
But others to appear only at lunch break.
Filled as they come, empty as they go,
These lunchboxes travel a long way
Around a whole classroom, through all nooks and crannies.
Twisting and turning, to avoid being seen
By the sharp-eyed teachers of the school.
And if, by any chance, you would go into such a class,
Just look a little sharper and find
The naughty one at the back, eating
As the lessons go on.
