The Feeling of Having a Good Day

Hallelujah –

I’m awake!

This day belongs to me

and I’m its favourite.

It wants to lick me

like a dog.

The world

is a balloon

that’s on my string.

I’ll get a prize

at school assembly

for being me,

then all the lessons

will be about

my awesomeness

and at break

I’ll kick the football

to Australia.

I can see it in the mirror

when I smile –

I have electric teeth!
