The Packs

The Packs.
This is a picture of the Pack family.

The Packs they eat their toys.
And the Packs they sleep in their trash,
And the Packs they make a mess,
Oh, the Packs are silly.
The Packs they chew the chairs
Are you a Pack?

An improvisation from Gelett Burgess's poem Table Manners. (a Language Art lesson)

The Goops they lick their fingers,
And the Goops they lick their knives;
They spill their broth on the tablecloth-
Oh, they lead disgusting lives!
The Goops they talk while eating,
And loud and fast they chew;
And that is why I'm glad that I
Am not a Goop-are you?

Nura didn't want to write it till the end, so she ended her version abruptly in her own manner.
