Kabuteng P.Ink K. July 7, 2011 at 7:51 AM This sure is a witty hokey pokey version, quite meaning really :) and also enjoyed how you did it in Uncle Sam's hat shape, too! Very clever :D

Andrea Dietrich July 4, 2011 at 10:56 AM Yep, it seems war is the answer these days. It sure was helpful at least in making us an independent nation! Kids should really enjoy shape poetry, joey. WEll, I sent ya a list of my first three pages of kid friendly poem titles. But it's under the heading of your last soupmail to me. Have a great fourth! andrea
