Auntie Brooke by Jeff Foxworthy

Happy Poetry Month!  Last week, members of the National Honor Society celebrated Poetry Month by reading selected poems by Jeff Foxworthy from his book of poems called Dirt On My Shirt.  Poems were read during morning announcements!  Here is one of our favorites:

Auntie Brooke by Jeff Foxworthy


My Auntie Brooke just just loves to cook
From turkey to cookies to bread
When she makes spaghetti,
You'd better get ready
For meatballs the size of your head!
She once made a cake as big as a lake
A cement ruck stirred up the batter
She put on the icing that was so enticing
With the oar from a boat and a ladder
