The boredom was overpowering, Some kids just fell asleep. We were waiting for an assembly, Out of boredom began to weep. Just when we thought we'd die of frustration, We heard a piercing shriek, An angry cat up on the roof, was screaming (so to speak) We waited for another sound, And suddenly it came, The sound of a dog falling, Obviously in serious pain. Then one after the other, We heard some frightening bumps, And angry dogs and cats, Falling with loud thumps. For a while we felt confusion, Then the speaker phone came on “The assembly will now begin,” We all started to yawn. The cats and dogs kept howling, And one kid raised his hand, “It’s raining cats and dogs out there, All over the land!!” "Sticks and stones will break my bones, |
