My Greatest Fear (6 ratings) by C. A. Fischer
Once upon a midnight dreary,
Brain is bubbling and thoughts are bleary,
Over the homework and its forgotten lore.
When suddenly I heard a nagging,
As if something badly dragging,
Dragging in my mind of bores.
Dragging with forgotten lore.
I looked around my house and seeing
Nothing of the sort is beating,
Beating in my mind of bore.
I then looked around some more.
I walked into the kitchen, glaring
I somehow wanted to be staring,
Staring inside my computer drawer.
Only this and nothing more.
I found some homework that needed doing
I then groaned and started gluing,
Gluing paper from my drawer.
Then something stopped, it was the nagging.
Now my brain was simply dragging,
Dragging at the forgotten lore.
Only this and nothing more.
I had forgotten all the studying,
That I was not to be burying,
Burying in my mind of forgotten lore.
Then again I heard this nagging,
As if someone badly tagging,
Tagging in my mind some more.
I recognized this voice of bore.
It was my father gently nagging,
As if something had been dragging,
Dragging him to nag some more.
To complete this homework with my mind of bore.
