The Great Millow

Author's Note:
This a Dr. Seuss style poem that I wrote including references from my other Dr. Seuss poems and some of Dr. Seuss's as well.


If you've ever heard the tales
Of the planet named New Rillow
You've heard of Whos and Spronks and Quids
But how about a Millow?

Yes in deed a Millow is
The dumbest of them alright
But the only soul surviving Millow
Isn't leaving without a fight

He can punch a wherewolf
Straight from here to Mars
He can even beat a vampire
Across children monkey bars

He knows all about
Important stuff, unlike you or I
For he knows about philosophy
And this is not a lie

Da Vinci, some would call him
But that's just being modest
Cause this Millow knew about the Grinch
In the beginning of that August!

His power is so sought out
That he even knows Santa Clause
Mother Nature, Easter Bunny
And…dramatic pause



When the mean old Gleefs took over New Rillow
Do you know who they called?
Yes indeed, it was Mr. Millow
Who moved ten logs that needed hauled

No one really knows for sure
If New Rillow's even real
Though just go to the Great Millow
And see how that makes him feel
