You take Master Card or Visa
Only money will please ya’
You help quench the students thirst
And put hunger in a hearse
You are in the front and on the ground
It seems like you are all around
You make us wait
We know our fate but go to you anyway
Glory in a bowl or plate
French fries or pancakes?
It doesn’t matter just give me the platter
And help me smile before the classroom chatter
This one is really funny, uncharacteristically so for an ode, and it worked really well. The rhythm seems to me a bit like a rap song which added to the poem's humorous element.
SvaraRaderaMoreover I really like the metaphor "put hunger in a hearse".
I really liked this one. It made me laugh and since I too have spent a lot of time in Gläntan in the last four years I really find this funny.
SvaraRaderaMaybe you should print it out and put it on the wall for others to see in Gläntan?

Well done!
SvaraRaderaDid not expect an ode to something on the school :D Liked the metaphors!
