T-Rex Named T Rhymes

During the Mesozoic times 
There was a T-rex named T. Rhymes
His tiny teeth he was hiding
Afraid of bullying and chiding.

His mother said “We don’t need big.”
His daddy said, “We don’t eat pig.”
Stegosaurus said “If they make fun of you
I will show them the bottom of my shoe.”

This made him laugh and play
And took these feelings all away.
So you see, in the absolute end.
All it takes is a really great friend!

Thank you Jan. I am the resident "non-bully" who is trying to teach all of the others. The trouble is, that some of them were taught to "put up their dukes" to fight their siblings at a young age by mothers who also put up their dukes. I can teach the children, but I do not take on their mothers.
