Team Breakfast

The 7th of March is Cereal Day /

so we invited some friends to come over and play.

The table was set with all sorts of cereals /

with milk and with bowls and with other materials.

Older kids drank orange juice with champagne /

The younger ones had to drink their juice plain.

Boxes were opened and pieces were poured /

Three kinds of Cheerios were the first we explored.

There were wonderful smiles and rejoices of “yummy” /

As little round loops filled little round tummies.

Loops of all colors, fruit-flavored balls /

cinnamon squares… we sampled them all.

The children found every cereal delicious /

but one mother worried they weren’t that nutritious.

I told that mom something she didn’t know /

Most of these cereals are non-GMO.

That blew her mind, so I shattered her brain… /

all of these cereals are made with whole grains.

The children continued to eat with big grins /

and pieces of cereal stuck to their chins.

Once the bowls were all empty and gift bags were gifted /

I remembered a scene and my spirits were lifted.

A little girl eating with intense concentration /

with quite respect for this day in our nation.

Raise your spoons to the air and repeat what I say: /

All hail cereal! Happy #CerealDay!

Special thanks to General Mills for sending us a Cereal Day gift box with cereals and party favors which inspired us to hold this year’s party.
