Treasure Box

I had really good behavior
My behavior's big in size
So I get to go to the Treasure Box
& get myself a prize.

But when I got to pick one out
I saw it was unfair!
My opportunity cost is
everything else in there!

Matt-
You should have seen the picture he drew with it. In the treasure box were so many wonderful things. They boy next to it was scratching his head.

Mike had to explain the poem to me because I didn't understand it.
