The Breeze

March 1978

From the Neighborhood School writers’ corner in The Paper, March 1978. Original student wording, names and printed age information are preserved.

The breeze in the trees was so quiet,

you could hear the house sheeze

While eating cheese and drinking booze,

After you finished, you would take a

snooze.

After you finished that,

you would eat chicken fat.

After a little more,

you would waddle out the door.

Originally published in The Paper, March 1978.
