A BAD GRADING SYSTEM MR COX

There once was a math teacher named Mr. Cox,
Those that had his class suffered a nasty pox,

And "B's" were not his way,
But, he gave out "C's" fast like changing ones socks.

TRAVERSE BAY TIME

Traverse Bay is big and blue,
It’s water fun through and through,
You can cross with a boat,
Or else swim or just float’
But, don’t wade it whatever you do.

If you fish in Grand Traverse Bay,
You will catch something during the day,
If you get your wish,
It will be a fish,
Not a sea monster coming your way.

KALKASKA TIME-Limerick

KALKASKA TIME

Kalkaska is a place with bears,
They’re one of Mother Nature’s terrors,
If you hear one grunt,
You must not confront,
Confrontations are serious errors.

Kalkaska has a huge fountain trout,
It’s taller than anything about,
It’s really speckled,
Some say it’s freckled,

It’s really big there is no doubt.

EVIL ROY THE MOTH

Roy was a great big summer moth,
He only ate pure cotton cloth,
He would never play fair,
He ate holes in underwear,
The drafts made you yearn for hot broth.

Poor little Georgie was teased out of school,
The kids and the teachers said he was a fool,

When he created the butler robot named Steven,
Now Georgie has a mansion and billions of dollars,
His former Nemesis's are poor and live in squallers.

CHEAP BOTTLED WINE

Bittersweet kiss on the lips,

MANCELONA TIME

MANCELONA TIME

Mancelona had a pig roast,
They ate their pig with eggs and toast,
But then someone muttered,
Their toast was not buttered,
So,now they have no roast to boast,

If you really love to catch big fish,
In Mancelona you’ll get your wish,
They have rainbow trout,
And sunfish that pout,
And recipes to make your fish dish.

Mancelona was a real small town,
But, their cheese was famous all around,
Some saw a rat,
Near the cheese vat,
Then the cheese factory was shut down.
