Poem
Get Your Dr. Seuss On! Contest Sponsor: The Seeker HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A FAT SNAKE??? Snakes are squirmy and sassy and naughty, snakes are wormy and creepy and haughty. They sleep and hiss and eat all day, they creep and miss their feet to play. At the zoo I met a snake big and fat, Mr. Bleu was let out by the pig and sat. Vertebrae with a long tongue to scare, from Paraguay sung a song declared. Mr. Bleu eats rats and sheep and cows, a new peacock trapped in a heap by the bough. Last night I heard a Wild-a-beast cry, his fright concurred the snake’s feast dry. He preferred moist meat not old jerky, he heard the Hoist speak happy and perky. “You fat ol’ snake get out of this zoo!” But he sat on a steak, that cruel Mr. Bleu! He stayed and snacked on a poor giraffe, he laid on his back all sore and then laughed. “I’m fat and don’t care what I eat around here!” He sat and stared on a seat without fear. Too bad that the green elephant ol’ Mr. Trick, was a sad marine irrelevant and quite sick. He turned to Mr. Bleu with a face of disgust, so stern and threw up with haste so robust. Mr. Bleu got squirmy and his sassiness died, he knew he was naughty and with hissiness cried. “I can’t believe you’d do that to me!” Mr. Trick wouldn’t leave and stood by the tree. He stumbled over to the cruel Mr. Bleu, his tummy rumbled and knew it was true! The naughty snake shriveled up and retreated, so haughty and stayed belittled and defeated! Date Written: May 25, 2016
