Impertinent
Daddy's brother Bill came from school
With a note from teacher
That said he'd been impertinent
In class Bill a brasher
Daddy said what's so bad was
Definition drew blank
Impertinent beyond his dad's
Education's low rank
The children heard dad quietly say
My father was on school board
Way back, now my son's impertinent
With behavior I'm floored
Well of course a note home not good
Impertinent couldn't be good
Uncle Bill thought of a way out
A scheme he understood
He went back to the school with plan
Told the teacher his dad
Was on the school board and would come
To see what was so bad
He thought that would get the teacher
Thinking different way
Well let me tell you little ones
Didn't work then won't today
Finis....
