Drooling
for Mr. G's
Hear the stomping sneakers and laughing teachers
With grumbling, growling stomachs kids run
To recess time at Mary Elizabeth Post
Hungry screaming and chasing
the soccer ball on the wet green field,
hands slipping on greasy jungle gyms
Kids wiping sweet sweat
from their foreheads
till the teacher's whistle blows
And the wind changes
And wafts la aroma déliciosa
de tacos y tamales y burritos
While the kids sadly march off
to the school cafeteria
drooling for a taste of Mr. G's
