Line Gauthier Poet Monorhyme

Brad the Grad

There once was a boy named Brad
Loved to wear a bowtie made of plaid
He looked like a nerd the way he was clad
But he barely knew how to add

Get some sun kept repeating his dad
Couch potato is a real bad fad
There are things to do a whole myriad
Soon when school’s out you’ll be a grad

Time to plan your life, my lad
Gear up to be happy not sad   
Sharpen your skills to be had   
The last thing you want is a life that’s bad

Motivated, in the paper Brad found an ad
For participants in the Olympiad
He lined up and was glad
'Cause he won a trip to Trinidad
