      February 4, 2014Savannah AlvarezRambunctious

      Rambunctious is with me
      Like literally inside me
      I am going crazy and spinning in a tornado
      With happy and fun
      I hit my head on a tuba
      I fill my bathtub with soda
      Me and Rambunctious jump in
      I make a clay bunny
      Write my name on the wall
      I play hopscotch with hula‐hoops
      My ears shrink and I hear a ringing
      I jump into a mirror
      And ride my bike into a trash can
      All this time I have Rambunctious inside me
      I erase the board and write everything again
      We climb a tree to the top
      Then we jump off with a plop
      I hit my head on the tuba again
      And put some earmuffs on a bear
      Then I walk outside and see a cloud
      A cloud that is shaped like a cloud
      And I stop
