And get right to the top,
But I started to spell "banana"
And I didn't know when to stop.

Lost Head
I'm sorry I got angry.
I guess I lost my head.
It really doesn't matter-
I'll borrow yours instead.
I'll have it back by Friday.
You won't miss it at all.
Until then you can borrow
My brother's basketball.
-Douglas Florian

Fell into a tropical lake.

A few minutes later,
"Very nice, but I still prefer steak."

The Fox Has Caught The Chickens
The fox has caught the chickens,
But the chickens fixed the fox.
The fox is skipping dinner,
For they gave him chicken pox.
