It is very unfair to be punished for something you didn’t do. I didn’t do …. my homework!

It’s unfair to be blamed for something you didn’t do!

I DIDN’T DO IT

By Michele Lourie

Home from school, Charlie said to his Dad,

“I got into trouble today.”

He looked so downcast when he added,

“I wasn’t allowed out to play.”

 

Surprised, his father gave him a hug

And kissed him on his head.

“You’ve never been in trouble before,

Not that I’ve known,” he said.

 

“Teacher yelled and scowled at me,” said Charles,

“It made me feels so sad.”

“But what on earth could you have done

That Mr Grey thought was so bad?”

 

“It wasn’t what I did that made

My teacher tear out his hair.

It was for something I didn’t do,

And I think that it’s very unfair.”

 

“It’s unfair if you didn’t do anything.

Explain son, give me a clue.”

“I got into trouble because it was

My HOMEWORK that I didn’t do.
