Noodles, Noodles, Everywhere!!
(a true story from the Moonpie Chronicles)
My name is Moonpie McLovenugget, and I am one.
I now own nine teeth, and that makes life more fun.
I get to eat things like chicken nuggets, strawberries, and oatmeal creme pies.
Not long ago I only ate chalky formula from a bottle, SO I’m really glad that time flies.
I’m pretty sure that my Gi Gi just gave me a bowl of MAGIC noodles,
Because somehow a few noodles became oodles and oodles.
I have fistfuls of long stringy pasta that I’m just flinging around.
They go everywhere, all over the dog, on the walls and the ground.
They’re on my face, and in my hair,
Noodles, Noodles, Everywhere!
Look! noodles are under there!
(Wait, under where?)
HA! I made you say underwear!!
There are thousands of noodles hiding there,
Underneath my sticky high chair.
Maggie the Wonder Hound loves it when I eat.
She takes her place right underneath my seat.
She catches all the food that I toss and drop on the floor.
She noisily gulps it all down and then begs for more.
You would think that the big sloppy mess would make my GiGi frown.
But, she winks and smiles, because she likes having me around.
carbonated joy
