Poem
Teddiboo was trifling and trifling so He just kept wandering to and fro His barber Mr. Smith had grown old and gray Mr. Smith had just moved far far away Teddiboo was a Spaazzoozle and don't you know His hair would just grow and grow and grow For a Spaazzoozle he wasn't to tall or scary But Teddiboo was very hairy hairy hairy Curly Q squiggles of yellow and red Boy what a mess it made when he shed His hair was dragging all over the ground But alas, no barber could be found With the party but a few hours away He needed a haircut, he needed one today Not a lot of people would know what to do Asked by a Spaazzoozle for a haircut, would you You need to have just the right kind of tools Or your customers would all look like fools Not only do you need really really big scissors You also need skizzors and slizzors and swizzors So off he went on his new mission He was suffering from a hair condition But this above all else was a must He had to find someone he could trust Teddiboo was as lovie as lovie could be He would love you, he would love me The he saw a big sign, could it be Today only Spaazzoozle haircuts are free free free So he ran and he ran fast down the street Did you know that Spaazzoozzle's have tiny feet With his big pillow hands he pushed open the door And saw piles and piles of hair on the floor The barber looked up and said,"no more haircuts I'm through I've got far to much cleaning up to do." Teddiboo pleaded,just one more haircut today Then I promise I will jump up and go away I've got money to pay, to pay you today I will pay you this day with money I say Go away? You will pay? the barber said with a stare If you would sir please go sit in my chair My name is barber Bill, how do you do I will do one more haircut today, and I'll do it for you Bowing his head he said "I am Teddiboo" You are very kind sir and a big thank you to you Barber Bill had really really big scissors He also had Skizzors and Slizzors and Swizzors And clippers and dippers, hair flippers and floppers But most of all he had tippy tip toppers With a flick of his wrist the hair started flying He was cutting so fast, without even trying He was just as nice as nice could be Cutting and combing and talking with glee That's the same thing Mr. Smith would do When you get a haircut, does the barber talk to you? Then he stopped and looked, was something not right He reached in a cabinet and grabbed his hair light Stepping back he squinted then said with a smile I think I've created a new sensational style With your Curly Q squiggles of yellow and red This is the best hair I've ever cut, he said It will make the cover of Hairdos Who's Who And I will call it The Teddiboo Doo Then he picked up his broom and gave a wink As he swept and swept the piles of hair started to shrink All the while he was whistling a little tune He looked up and said,"please come back real soon" It was very nice to meet you and with a grin You better hurry the party is about to begin Walking into The Jazgigglegaloon was a thrill All made possible by his new friend barber Bill THE END Contest: Childrens Story,Dr Seuss Style Sponsored by:Casarah Nance Written 8/26/15
