I Had A Great Day

Ruth had a rough morning where she woke up late, bumped her head falling out of bed, stepped on her dog who bit her leg, and missed catching the school bus. At school, she failed her spelling test and didn't get recess. However, after school a new kid invited her to climb trees in the park, where she made a new friend and had an enjoyable afternoon, making her day turn out well in the end despite the morning mishaps.

I HAD A GREAT DAY

by Ruth Romer

I woke up too late,


So I bumped my head.
Caught in my covers, I had no lunch money.
I fell out of bed. My stomach felt bad.
No hot lunch for me.
I stepped on my dog, The lady looked mad.
And he bit my leg.
I hopped to the kitchen. I sat on the stairs,
Mom dropped my egg. My head on my knees.
The new kid sat down.
I missed the school bus “Let’s go climb some trees.”
And ran all the way.
My teacher called out, We walked to the park.
“No recess today!” We talked all the way.
I made a new friend.
I knew five questions. And I’d like to say,
The rest I just guessed. That after all that,
My spelling was wrong. I had a great day.
I sure failed that test.
