Rock-Paper-Scissors

My son, Mark is four years old With scissors he cuts papers and folds Till he crafts canoe And once he is through He'll tag, “Canoe to be sold" One day he made one so large and tight To the pool he rushed in delight And loaded scissors and rocks As his cerebrum clocks The paper craft paddled all right He was so proud like peacock And unloaded the scissors and rocks And tried to paddle He thought it's possible But he got drowned like a brick For P.D's contest:"Rock~Paper~Scissors"

Very creative piece, Joseph! A kid rowing in a paper boat. Of course, he would sink!
