Poetry Friday: Lucy Maureen Hough
So, I present Lucy's first ever poem (at least that I have been able to jot down before I forgot it). I wish I could tap into the unlimited creativity of my five-year-old...
Did You Ever
by Lucy Maureen Hough
Roar! Roar!
Roar! Roar!
Did you ever ever hear a dinosaur?
Did you ever hear a dinosaur?
And did you hear him say
Crocky crocky,
Crocky crocky?
And did you wonder why he said it?
Did you wonder why he said it?
It's because he ate a crocky-gator!
Crocky crocky,
Crocky crocky!
As soon as I relayed this poem to Mark, she protested, "No! No! I meant crocodile! I just got confused!" I include her amendment for honesty's sake...but I like it best the original way.
It makes you wonder...what exactly would a crocky-gator be like?

Well, some of us have trouble telling a gator apart from a crocodile so a crocky-gator solves that problem. Very cute poem.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, today I saw a turtle-gator. It's a turtle with the tail of an alligator.
Oh, wow, Lucy looks so BIG!!!! Adorable!
