a poem, by Mason

I want to share with you the poem that Mason had to write for class today. I was never any good at poetry and dreaded it when he asked me to help him today at lunch. Here's what he came up with (all he told me was that it had to rhyme and have eight lines).

*****

One day I went to the zoo.
I saw a caribou.
Then a zebu came across,
The zebu told me to get lost.
So I went to see the bears,
They were standing on some chairs.
Then I saw a little horse,
He told me I had to leave, of course!

*****
I thought it was rather clever!
