Scotty the Skunk

Scotty the Skunk was sitting in class, when his English teacher gave her students, a poetry task. Write a poem for me, on the subject of who you would rather be. Scotty wasn't the best writer in class, but he knew in his heart, he give it his best. Sammy the Squirrel sat next to him, while holding his nose, he laughed and he grinned. Ralphy the raccoon gave Scotty a box of deodorant soap. He then laughed out loud as if it was a real funny Joke. " I'm tired of having them pick on me. Someday I'll show them, you wait and see!" Scotty the Skunk went crying to his mom. He said, "Mom I wish I wasn't born a skunk!" His mum said, "Were all created equally son." " Don't let others cause you grief. Just ignore them and live your life in peace." Scotty gave his mom a long embrace. No matter how sad he felt, his mother's hugs always made him feel great He went to his room and started to write. He did not stop writing, till twelve o'clock midnight. This is what Scotty wrote. I would want to be born a Rose, a sweet scent smelled, by everyone's nose. If I was a Rose. I would never be teased. A fragrant aroma, I would release. My mum and dad wouldn't worry about me. I would be as happy, as happy can be. Ralphy and Sammy would be my best friends, and would never poke fun of me ever again. No one would ever say that I stunk, Or think of me as a smelly skunk! " I'm happy being myself, and no one else!" He said to himself.
