My Five-Year-Old WROTE That!
In my opinion, a
five-year-old boy is too young to have his own blog. This leaves me no choice but to post my son’s
work on mine. As far as I know, no child
labor laws have been violated. Besides,
he wrote the poems for the kindergarten poetry day, not for me. Since his kindergarten will not, at any point
in time, become the sole and proprietary publisher of his poetry, no copyrighting
laws have been violated either. Generous royalties will be paid as requested by
the writer. They will be in the form of backpack
decorations and a remote control robot.
Poems by Tyler D.
Writer’s Age: 5 (and a half)
Poem 1
Once the Lorax went to a hill
and found a log.
Then he rested on the log.
Poem 2
Once there was a frog,
On a log,
With another frog!
Important Disclaimers: No children, animals, or trees were hurt or treated
cruelly during the production of these poems. The opinions expressed in them
are solely of the writer and do not represent the opinions of the blogger or
the rest of her family. The writer does
not support or suggest cutting down trees but, being an artist, simply
expresses what he sees. Any resemblance
of or reference to a fictional character is exactly that—a reference to a
fictional character. Neither the writer
nor the publisher promote or support the production of the newly released
motion picture, The Lorax. They neither
suggest nor deny it as a possible source of inspiration or influence. While the writer owns a frog, any
resemblance of the frogs in Poem 2 to the frog that the writer owns is purely
co-incidental. The frogs in the poem are
the product of the writer’s imagination and constitute a work of fiction. The writer is in no way suggesting or
supporting the reproduction of amphibians or their use of tree stumps or limbs,
but is simply noticing frogs’ occasional and most likely, accidental,
companionship occurring on logs. Both
poems are deemed appropriate for young audiences by a set of undisclosed
parents of five-year-old boy/girl twins.
