Hi my name is Ryan. I'm going to tell you three poems.

CLARENCE

Clarence Lee from Tennessee
Loved the commercials he saw on T.V.
He watched with wide believing eyes
And bought everything they advertised-
Cream to make his skin feel better,
Spray to make his hair look wetter,
Bleach to make his white things whiter,
Stylish jeans that fit much tighter.
Tooth paste for his cavities,
Powder for his doggies fleas,
Purple mouthwash for his breath,
deodorant to stop his sweet.
He bought each cereal they presented,
bought each game that they invented.
Then one day he looked and saw
"A brand-new Maw, a better Paw!
New,improved in every way-
Hurry,orders yours today!"
So, of course, our little Clarence
Sent off for two brand-new parents.
The new ones came in the morning mail,
The old ones he sold at a garage sale.
And now they all are doing fine:
His new folks treat him sweet and kind,
His old ones work in an old coal mine.
So if your Maw and Pa are mean
And make you eat your lima beans
And make you wash and make you wait
And never let you stay up late
And scream and scold and preach and pout,
That simply means they're wearing out.
So send off for two brand-new parents
And you'll be as happy as little Clarence...

Boa Constrictor

Oh I'm being eaten
By a boa constrictor,
A boa constrictor,
I'm being eaten by a boa constrictor,
And I don't like it - one bit.
Well, what do you know?
It's nibbling my toe.
Oh, gee,
It's up to my knee.
Oh my,
It's up to my thigh.
Oh fiddle,
It's up to my middle.
Oh heck,
It's up to my neck.
Oh, dread
It's upmmmmmmmmmmffffffffff

Warning

Inside everybody's nose
There lives a sharp-toothed snail.
So if you stick your finger in,
He may bite off your nail.
Stick it farther up inside,
And he may bite your ring off.
Stick it all the way, and he
May bite the whole darn thing off.

I took a trip to Upper Michigan with my grandma in 1996. Here is the journal I kept and some pictures from the trip. Click on the pictures to see a larger picture.

Day 1

Bond Falls: Maw and I saw a snake and a lot of waterfalls. The water there was cold. There were a lot of rocks there. I found three rocks and brought them home with me. I also found a little frog. I had fun there and hope I come again.

I swam in Lake Superior with the raft. I built a sand castle. Maw and I went to Deer Lake. The water was warm and I got out a blue boat that Great Grandpa made. Maw and I slept in the rain with the tent. Maw made a camp fire and we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. Saw the moon on the water.

Day 2

I played on the beach a lot and the water got really high. We went to Deer Lake and Man-Made Lake and we saw 9 road toads and 1 turtle. We ate at Deer Lake and swam there with the raft. We saw 15 big fish and took a walk. We ate at Brownstone and I made a brown stone. We slept in the tent.

Day 3

We went to my Great Grandma's and ate at a park. The car alarm went off. We walked on the breakwall and saw trains on the ore dock. The water there was really high. We went to Pebble Beach and skipped rocks and saved them. We went to Deer Lake. We saw a frog at Deer Lake and Maw said "It's dead" and she stepped on it and it moved. We made another fire and skipped some more rocks.

Day 4

Today is our last day in camp. Today Maw, Da and I ate ham and eggs on the picnic table. After that we went to Canada! In Canada we went to a airplane museum. After that we went to a touring boat. Then we ate and left. We're driving back now. Maw got some ice cream. It was Mackinac Fudge.
