Hail, Ho, Parts Of Speech! Poem by Sasikala Kamandula

Hail, Ho, Parts Of Speech!



Little Jack Horner sat in a corner
With his head in both his hands.
"What makes you, Jack,
So fume and quack? "
I referred to Parts of Speech
And it made me loss of speech;
Noun, Pronoun, verb,
Fight my heart's lob-dub;
Adjective, Adverb, etcetera………,
Band my head orchestra! "
"NOUN is like your FATHER
Who gives you ALL IN NAME,
VERB is like your MOTHER
That WORKS all the time but never doth claim,
And PRONOUN is YOU,
That STAND FOR FATHER's due.
When he gets old,
Don't you take our hold?
ADJECTIVE is your younger sis, KATE
Who always is DADDY'S PET
While ADVERB is your BABY SIS, Grace,
That plays WITH MOM and KATE
And also with SELF with much bliss.
Preposition is Uncle Jose
That relates you to all his friends and foes;
CONJUNCTION is like that mine
To you JOIN you all kith and kin
While INTERJECTION is the Neighbour
To see and widen the eyes in WONDER.
How do you feel now Parts of Speech? "
"As if I play in Marina Beach! "

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Grammar is a terrible topic to many a student. I feel, a rhyme works out more than a detail traditional explanation. Young or old, its effect is the same, a warm approach with fun!
