| "First-Time Baby", Jake's first poem. |
My First-born, Straight A++, turned Six in July,
Mini-Adult wrote this beautiful piece of literature.
This was based on a pattern prompt for class,
"The egg becomes a chicken, The Tadpole becomes a Frog."
Jake took the idea and ran.
Punctuation and Spelling as written.
Jake describes it as his story but what an awesome poem.
"First-Time Baby"
By C. Jacob (Jake) Wells
First the baby then 2 days old.
Then grow some more then 1 month old.
Then grow some more then 1 yer old.
Then 5 yers old.
Then gorw some more and more and before you know it your a growup.
And your 32 and your 6 Feet tall.
and grow some more and now your 60.
And rite now your sleeping and now your 95
and inside and waching tv.
And now somethig sad happnns
now your dead
under your
gave stone
and that is
the end for you.
Just sayin' with corrections maybe this could win a Pulitzer or at least a poetry competition.
