Excuses Excuses

I know a little boy

Who always tells me why

He cannot finish his work

Or feels the need to cry

He peppers me with questions

He tells me he is quick

He wants to keep on talking

But I can see through all his tricks!

He uses many words

To tell me what he thinks

When I ask him to write them down

He does not want to, "It stinks!"

I hope to end this debate

And get him working very soon

Maybe I can get him to try

'Cause, "Darn it! It is June!"
