I call you for dinner
at the roast beef you glare
you sulk at the table
and kick at my chair
"I don't want it" you cry
"I hate veggies" you moan
but a young boy can't live on Mcnuggets alone!
You call me a meanie
you say it's not fair
to make you eat green stuff
"I won't eat it, so there!"
You hunch up your shoulders
arms crossed, lips shut tight
your stare is defiant
as you fight for your right
to eat what you want to
and do as you please
my 5 year old rebel
with scabs on both knees
You'll eat it eventually
and I'll secretly laugh
'cause round two is coming
I'm running your bath!
