I Made a Meme this Morning
I made a meme this morning.
aI posted it online. b
I asked my mom’s permission.a
She said that it was fine. b
Then people started sharing it. a
The next thing that I knew, b
my meme had spread around the world. c
It grew, and grew, and grew! b
By lunch my meme went viral. a
It had a billion views. b
By dinnertime the TV had it c
on the evening news. b
I earned a penny, maybe two, a
from every single share, b
and, by the time I went to bed, c
I was a millionaire. b
I thought of making one more meme
that might go even higher.
But, nah, I’m nearly nine years old.
I think I’ll just retire.
