I Made a Meme this Morning

I made a meme this morning.
I posted it online.
I asked my mom’s permission.
She said that it was fine.

Then people started sharing it.
The next thing that I knew,
my meme had spread around the world.
It grew, and grew, and grew!

By lunch my meme went viral.
It had a billion views.
By dinnertime the TV had it
on the evening news.



I earned a penny, maybe two,
from every single share,
and, by the time I went to bed,
I was a millionaire.

I thought of making one more meme
that might go even higher.
But, nah, I’m nearly nine years old.
I think I’ll just retire.

Distance learning. What a bore.
Our school’s been closed a month or more.
I’m stuck at home. I’m in my room,
and meeting with my class on Zoom.

There’s no more lunchroom. No PE. Just studying and tests for me.

There’s no more recess. No more ball. 
Just staring at my bedroom wall.



The playground’s closed - the swings, the slide - and everybody’s stuck inside.
We can’t go out and play with friends.
I hope that, pretty soon, this ends.

I know it’s only for a while, but here’s a thought that makes me smile:
Although it might not sound so cool,
I just can’t wait to go to school.
