My Doggy Ate My Essay
by Darren Sardelli
My doggy ate my essay.
He picked up all my mail.
He cleaned my dirty closet
and dusted with his tail.
He straightened out my posters
and swept my wooden floor.
My parents almost fainted
when he fixed my bedroom door.
I did not try to stop him.
He made my windows shine.
My room looked like a palace,
and my dresser smelled like pine.
He fluffed up every pillow.
He folded all my clothes.
He even cleaned my fish tank
with a toothbrush and a hose.
I thought it was amazing
to see him use a broom.
I'm glad he ate my essay
on “How to Clean My Room.”

【活動說明】
欣賞了詩歌之後，歡迎大家在跟帖裏對詩歌進行點評，分享讀後感。本活動主要是為大家提供一個閱讀英文詩歌的窗口，以賞詩為主，不要求寫詩。如果大家偶爾靈感閃現，有感而發地想要寫寫詩的話，大家可以嚐試用相同的或者相關的詩歌標題，寫出不一樣的英文詩，在賞詩寫詩的過程中自娛自樂。寫出來的英文詩如果願意分享的話，歡迎以主帖或者跟帖的方式分享。謝謝大家的關注和支持！
Let's get some learning from the fun and get some fun from the learning!
