Can Do May

Can-Do May had a fantastic attitude
she ignored regular naysayers, thought them rude
her own family would say there is no way….
discouraging entrepreneur, Can-Do May

She was the first to find a live dinosaur
caught in a net with a rhino and a boar
amazing antics were Can-Do May's daily agenda
One-upped her family, not planning to offend-a.

Her weird family continued to put her down.
Called her names like buffoon, idiot and clown.
Jealous they were of their own child so bright
Negativity in them was not quite right

Can-Do May lived a life of vigor and vim
Nothing like the pathetic likes of them
But she never made fun or put them down
For she knows what it is like to be called a clown.
