Amanda ate an orange <br />and an olive and a peach. <br />Since then her teacher always keeps <br />the crayons out of reach. <br /> <br />Patricia brought her parakeet. <br />It pecked at Patrick’s puppy. <br />Samantha’s salamander swiftly <br />gobbled Gracie’s guppy. <br /> <br />Savannah’s snapping turtle <br />snapped the nose of Franklin’s frog. <br />I’d say Fernando’s ferret <br />went berserk on Daniel’s dog. <br /> <br />Poor Jordan found his gerbil <br />being chased by Katelyn’s cat, <br />and everyone was panicking <br />’cause Ryan brought his rat. <br /> <br />The teacher screamed and fainted, <br />and she fell right off her stool. <br />I guess I shouldn’t bring <br />my pet tarantula to school. <br /> <br />She soon enough recovered, <br />but you should have heard her yell. <br />It looks like that’s the last time <br />we’ll bring pets for show-and-tell.<br /><br />jake redfern<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/amanda-ate-an-orange/
