Poem Title:
Poem
All of the numbers From 1 to 10 Were at a party All the women and men There were food and drinks And toys on the shelves They had to admit They were enjoying themselves Then a number stood up Number 5 was he Wanting to show How good he could be "I am the best Yes I am so fine I am half of the Number line." "Not so fast!" cried number 8 Im so pretty and even I score all the dates." "You all are nothing!" Number 9 lumbered "I am the greatest, I am a square number!" Number 10 got up While everyone debated "Im first place! You all are so outdated." And so it began The great big brawl of who was the greatest number of them all "You guys are nothing!" Number 2 whined "Im the only number thats Even and prime!" But everyone stopped When they heard a little voice It seemed to tell them to make The right choice The voice continued "We were having fun! But now look at what We have become!" "Who is talking so wisely?" Number 10 strummed And out emerged The pesky number 1! "All of us are important In our own ways We don't need to rub it In someone else's face!" Number 1 was so tiny And needed to shave But everyone listened To the words he gave "Everyone one of us Is the best," he squeaked. "We don't have to put it To the test!" The numbers looked From one to another And realized that These were their sisters and brothers! "Wow." said number 7 "He's right." said number 3 Then they smiled at each other As happy as can be. And everyone knew That everyone was fine And went right back to having A really good time!
