Gary Smith Poet Rhyme

Steve, the Thoughtful Stegosaurus

Steve the Stegosaurus seemed an awful grumpy fellow,
All he did was stomp about, and how he roared and bellowed.
All the other dinosaurs knew he was around,
The noise he made was deafening, and tremors shook the ground.

Danny the Diplodocus said he'd have a word,
For Steve the Stegosaurus, was acting quite absurd.
He said " tell me Steve, what is up with you,
The place is in an uproar, we don't know what to do."

He said, "I'm a  Stegosaurus you can't say I'm petite,
I mean just take a look, have you not seen my feet?
I don't mean to be so noisy but I bellow every day,
It's just so the little ones can get out of my way."

"Oh Steve, said Danny, just you roar and bellow,
None of us ever knew that you were such a thoughtful fellow."
And so Steve he bellows, they hear him every day,
"Here comes thoughtful Steve" they say, 
    ....as they move out of his way.
