It made me think of the children's rhyme that begins with <I>James James Morrison Morrison Weatherby George Dupree...</I>, although that was about a child of a completely different character. I think the contrast made it even funnier. I agree that this would be a wonderful inclusion in any book of children's poetry. Thank you. I really enjoyed it!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8014482.post-22295373681721664812008-01-04T14:34:00.000-08:002008-01-04T14:34:00.000-08:00Sorry, Tiffany.

(Maybe I'm a little overly sensitive on this subject.)<BR/><BR/>To Paul, Light in the Attic or Where the Sidewalk ends are both good Silverstein collections. <BR/><BR/>Your poem also reminds me of the work of Jack Prelutsky (The Dragons Are Singing Tonight). <BR/><BR/>Nice work!
