OMG, I had no idea poetry could be this bad! I was laughing most of the time but a few times the poems were so bad it actually hurt to read them (baby talk, really?) I think this may have been the funnest book of poetry I have ever read (I am not too big on it) and I am so glad I did. However, I seem to be writing horrible poetry myself now... that totally sucks, but it is funny and is making DH's day(that was almost a forced rhyme... I was going to change funny and day so they would sort of rhyme... this book does bad things to usually sensible people). Enjoy! ;)"
"So bad and yet published, These are fun to read aloud to your family, Yes, mock along with us these ponderous elegies to cow disease and icky baby talk poems--"
