Poem

Revised Version

Timmy is a sophisticated little boy

Who refuses to play with others of his age

And if you ask him why?

He’ll answer you  

“That their behaviours are an outrage!”

But a boy cannot grow up without any youthful joy

Especially when “Mr.Grey” is his only toy

So Mr. and Mrs. Tipton ask their little Timmy

What he would like to play

Though little do we know

Our Timmy wouldn’t say

Despite how much Mr. and the Mrs. try

Their eventual outcome is some endless sigh

While they panic, while they woe

They notice Timmy tipping on his toe

The Mrs. Shouted, “He’s playing ! He’s playing!”

They both gazed, “But what is Timmy doing?”

Tipped their head, there they see

Rockets! Spaceships! Under the sea!

The Tiptons begin to join in on the blast

Cowboys! Pirates ! In the wild, willy west!

They smile at him, he smiles back

The Tipton’s fears have started to pack

Seeing Timmy with his big, big smile before bed

Tucked aside with his loyal companion Mr.Grey

With a little frankenstein stitch sitting on its head.

Though, nothing will stop them from a wonderful play

notes, pauses on all comas, last line “though” longer tone, ! and ? expression. emphasis on last word and pause between versus.

First Version

Timmy is a sophisticated little boy

Who refuses to play with others of his age

And if you ask him why ?

He’ll answer you  

“That their behaviors are too outrage!”

But a boy cannot grow up without any youthful joy

Especially when “Mr.Grey” is his only toy

So Mr. and Mrs. Tipton ask their little Timmy

What he would like to play

Though little do we know

Our Timmy wouldn’t say

Despite how much Mr. and the Mrs. try

They will only eventual with some endless sigh

While they panic while they woe

They noticed Timmy tipping on his toe

“He’s playing ! He’s playing!” shouted the Mrs.

“But what is Timmy doing?” they both gazes

Tipped their head there they see

Rockets! Spaceships! Under the sea

The Tiptons begin to then blast

Cowboys! Pirates ! In the wild, willy west

They smiled at him, he smiles back

The Tipton’s fear have all been unpack

Seeing Timmy with his big, big smile before bed

Tucked aside with his loyal companion Mr.Grey,

who has a little frankenstein stitch on the top of his head

But nothing stops them from an wonderful play
