The votes are in, we know the "win,"
Merridew's jealous all over again.And that Dickens guy,
though up in Heaven,
is impressed with the taste of period 7!
Just 3 votes for Caesar, that's hardly a thing,
it's like once again he can't be the king.
I'd hate for Shakespeare to think you were cheats,
I'd never want to read: "Et tu, Teets?"
So hail to Lucie, Carton and Darnay,
it was a landslide, from the very first day.
That is wonderful Mrs. Collentine. I am so impressed with your poetry skills. That means the 9 H students are going to have to really step up their game when it comes to writing poems. LOL
ReplyDeleteI love this poem Mrs. Collentine! It really made me laugh. I love how you were able to make us voting for our favorite book into a poem. I guess Dickens really is impressed with us =)
ReplyDeleteMrs. Collentine, I was actually laughing out loud when I read this. I love it! My favorite part was "Et tu, Teets." Miss Schiff is right, you're going to be tough to beat.=)

ReplyDeleteI love this Mrs.Collentine! I agree with Jessica, that was my favorite part too!=) This poem is so funny. I hope you write more like it!
ReplyDeleteP.S.
I voted for Julius Caesar! I wonder what the other people were thinking when they took the poll. I guess these growing votes plucked from Collentine's poll made Caesar fly an ordinary pitch.
Jacquerie: Your post made me smile and I have to admit, I got a little teary-eyed because your literary private joke was so clever and made me so proud! Good one! Glad you liked Caesar so much. I'm sure he's a little teary-eyed now too! LOL
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked my comment so much! Your literary snobish-ness is rubbing off on me! =)
ReplyDeleteThis poem really made me laugh, too! Like Michelle said, I like how you put our votes into a poem.
ReplyDeleteJackie: I love your comment!! =]
