A Silly Poem

At my school the green fish digs a hole and chases the dog down the road.

In the yard the big dinosaur laughs out loud and tells me a joke.

I laugh.

Later that day I saw a bug eat my teacher for lunch.

The lion reads a book in a tree and then, a scientist with a monkey drives a car too fast through the air.

In my dream, I catch a spaceship to the moon.

I go off looking for hot dogs.
