It all began
with that NOUN on the NOUN.
A NOUN on a NOUN…?
Shouldn’t be there at all!
I looked out
the window.
And I said,
“GEE!”
More things were wacky!
And I saw three.
I went
down the NOUN
and I said,
“HEY!”
Three
more things
were wacky today!
In the
bathroom,
MORE!
In the
NOUN,
FOUR!
I began to VERB .
Then I said,
“WOW!”
Four MORE things
were wacky now!
I looked
in the PLACE .
I said,
“By cracky!
Five more things
are very wacky!”
I was late for school.
I started along.
And I saw that
six more things were wrong.
And then seven more!
And the PERSONS NAME !
They looked wacky, too.
They said,
“Nothing is wacky
around here but you!”
I ran into PLACE .
I yelled to Miss Bass…
…”Look!
Nine things
are wacky
right here
in your NOUN!”
I VERB out
the PLACE .
Things were worse than before.
I couldn’t believe it.
Ten wacky things more!
Then I
counted
ELEVEN!
Then…
twelve WORSE things!
I got scared.
And I ran.
I ran
and knocked over
Patrolman McGann.
“I’m sorry, Patrolman.”
That’s all I could say.
“Don’t be sorry,” he smiled.
“It’s that kind of a day.
But be glad!
Wacky Wednesday
will soon go away!”
“Only twenty things more
will be wacky,” he said.
“Just find them
and then
you can go
back to bed.”
Wacky Wednesday was gone
when I counted them all.
And I even got rid
of that NOUN on the NOUN.
