I am trying to teach Mel the concept of rhyme so she can be a great poetess like me. When she could, she came up with the rhyme and otherwise she told me what she thought ole "Clippy" was doing or looking like. (Clippy is the Microsoft Word helper dude) ~Clippy"~ Mr. Somethin-Funny the Paper Clip Had a magic carpet paper trip He colors the page with crayon chalk Clackety-clack is his only talk Moving his eyes and dancin’ a bit Doesn’t have a bottom, so he can’t sit Googley eyed crazy with painted in lashes Buggin me bad when his bulletin flashes Is that his nose or a great big smile Makin fun of me is not his style Mr. Paper Clip named Something-Funny Don’t sell yourself for endorsement money Squiggly red lines and ones colored green You’re our own teacher handsome, not mean I cannot mispell one single word Mr. Something-Funny your Voice is heard Mr. Something-Cute I wish you goodnight Thanks for helping us with this poem write! Mr. Something-Funny please be brave Don’t think we hate you cuz we didn’t save Ride off into the sunset on your bike Mr. Something-Funny you are who we like! ![]() |

Very cute, Walt and Melanie! I'm sure she'll turn out to be a wonderful writer. But Walt, I didn't know you were a poetess! Is there something we don't know about you? ![]() |
