Poetry Craze!

Yup I wrote another poem. In fact I had to read/ sing it in front of the class. They liked it but I almost died. I don't mind reading, it was the sing. I know, You are asking, "Singing?!?" but you will understand better once you read my poem. Let's just say I am not the next American idol.

Walking through the forest

I decided to stop and lie down.

Hey!

Don’t crush me!

Squinting and barely seeing anything

I asked, Who

or what

are you?

I AM! Well…

I am Mr. Rogensworth

the Centipede.
What are you doing down there?

Well… da da da

Wait…

Are you going to sing?

Yup! da da da

I was once a lone-ly

Cen-ti-pede

but I dreamed of more!

So now I will be-come a butter-fly

and soar… the… world…

I see…

Can I come with?

Only if you believe

Believe…

in what?

Well…da da da

There are craters

of Twinkies and mountains galore

in store for you

only if you believe…

Believe in What?!?

Well… da da da

There are cotton candy

twisters and talk-ing cows

only if you believe…

Why won’t you tell me

in what to believe?

Well… da da da

If I can’t be a butter-fly

then all I say will be a lie

unless if you believe…

SPLAT!

Thusly I continued on my walk

dreaming of all the lies

Mr. Rogensworth sang about.

da da da

Ta-da
