A Feez

Author's Note:
This is a poem that I wrote because I felt like Dr. Seuss.  I am focusing on voice.


A feez is a thing
That lives in a place
That has lots of stuff
And a super green face

A feez is a thing
That has a pet quirk
That has a fun name
And a cute little smirk

A feez is a thing
That can count to just five
That comes after two
And right before nine

A feez is a thing
That has an orange nose
That has marvelous hair
And cheese-dip that blows

A feez is a thing
That smells really bad
That has its own brain
And is never sad

A feez is a thing
That looks like a monster
Has terrible breath
So I think that you'd like her
