An Ode to a Lost Brunch

Oh missed special brunch, oh missed special brunch
Because my family is a great awful bunch.
I missed your delight and all the good food,
I wasn’t allowed and thus my awful mood.

There would have been pancakes and waffles too,
Bacon and eggs and fruit enough for two.
It would have been scrumptious indeed,
But I didn’t get any, now I’m just peeved.

The long rolled out days of school will not end,
I cannot see why I couldn’t attend.
I could just not go, leave early from school?
No one would know, no not even a fool.

If I don’t leave now I'll surely un-spool
I didn’t bring lunch! I’ll jump in a pool!
Oh my missed brunch, oh my missed special brunch!
I cry your name, don’t leave me with punch.

I see it’s a problem, I see it now,
But I just wanted brunch, the milk from a cow.
Here I go again thinking of cuisine,
I wish I could forget; that would be keen.

But alas, it has been decided, my presence is denied,
I will miss you dearly, I would have loved you with pride.
With no lunch or brunch I am left to cry
I would have so loved a great special brunch fry.
