Leaving the cafeteria,
all is well.
How did I not see those pears?
My shoe slips against that evil fruit
and I fall to the ground in slow motion.
“Laugh it off!” I tell myself.
I get up laughing and walk away.
Great trip.

I wrote this for English class. It had to be about a trip, so I just took that word literally.

I don't need a rose. I want a daisy you picked for my hair. I don't want some fancy box of chocolate. I want a pink frosting cookie you made just for me. Lets skip the upscale restaraunt and have a picnic in the park.

it's cute, and i like how you took "Trip" i'm always doing that to my english teacher too. Anywho, i liked the poem. Short, simple, and still very good
