My Happy Meal Adventure
A slice of pizza,
A burger bun,
Some lemon drops,
And a soda pop.
A bowl of baked beans,
Some cheesy lasagna,
Some cubes of cheese,
And a spicy bowl of ramen.
A piece of bagel,
A chilly omelette,
A papaya salad,
And a chocolate shake.
Pieces of tacos,
A candy cane,
While my mom slept,
I made my happy meal.

This poem is written by Girisha Jhunjhunwala, a 9-year-old from Kolkata, who has been mentored by the team at Word Munchers.
