AN: I have nothing much to say here other than the fact that this is dedicated to Liza (Forever Siriusly Sirius) and Katie (LiveLaughLove013) for their love of Marauders. Written on my phone so be gentle if the format gets botched.

I've always loved to rhyme, but my rhythm of stanzas were never quite in time.


/BANG/

goes the chair as singing begins.

Good Merlin... Mr. Potter please sit down.

I see your life ambition is to be a clown,

but to halt my class, and not pay attention?

Well, I think you must want a detention!

Oh, no. Don't try to talk me out of of this.

A day of quiet would be perfect, utter bliss.

/SWISH/

goes the spell as it's aimed at a foe.

Have mercy! Mr. Black, not you too!

Just why did you turn Mr. Johnson blue?

I have my suspicions...er, and my fear.

You have detention, too. Do you hear?

The both of you just calm yourselves,

I haven't even begun my lec—

/GROWL/

goes a boy annoyed during his monthly...

and a bit hungry for chocolate.

REMUS LUPIN!? You of all, I'd least expect!

Because of this prank, my classroom's wrecked.

I realize you find it hard to concentrate

but that is no excuse to be so irate!

Of course, I do, I truly understand.

I know your outburst wasn't planned.

/...silence.../

But take heed you three, I've had it up to here!

This whole, long year you've been a pain in my rear.

What with the way you all misbehave,

Are you trying to send me to an early grave!?

Class, where was I once again? Ah yes...

how to turn a shirt into a dress...

/SPLAT/

goes goo... everywhere.

Yes, Mr. Pettigrew a fair and worthy attempt.

I know what you want. You, too, have my contempt.

I'm not sure why you hang around with these lot.

They might be more trouble than you thought.

Yes, yes, you have detention, too

Go with your friends, class is through.

/sigh/

goes the very tired Professor.

Why it has indeed been a very long day,

for only so long I can keep my anger at bay.

I—

/TWINKLE/

goes the older man, stroking his beard in amusement.

Minnie, dear, let them be free and enjoy their life.

They are young and untainted by living's strife.

No one can predict what tomorrow can bring.

Their happiness now will dull the harsh life sting.

In this moment, the memories they create,

will be bitter-sweet, but loosen the weight.

So loosen up my friend, and have a nice rest.

And let our pranksters do what the do best.

Oh, and one more thing before you go...

that goo in your hair is beginning to glow.


As always, all reviews are welcome and very much appreciated.
