boring, Boring, BORING!
Good thing that I'm not snoring!
Arithmetic is dull today.
I look at my best friend, LaRay.

LaRay gives me a little grin.
I smile but keep it pretty thin.
Both of us, we understood,
"Today our math is not so good."


But, we didn't make a sound
so no one was disturbed around.
We didn't make the teacher mad.
(That would have happened, if we had.)

I know that if you get in trouble
you will end up working DOUBLE.
A quiet grin is just enough
to help us get through all this stuff!
