Bright Boy Ben



Here is a cute picture of Ben from March when he got promoted from a Wolf Scout to a Bear Scout. I thought it would be nice to share a picture along with the great poem I just found in a package of work that came home from school. The assignment was to write about where you would live if you had the chance to to go to another country. Instead of writing a paragraph, he decide to write a little poem. I thought it was so creative and cute that I wanted to share it, so here goes:

Austraila

by Ben Fleury

If moving to another country was what I had to do,

I would go to Austraila, to see it's big zoo.

I'd also like to ride a camel, across it's dessert planes,

but maybe instead, I think I'd take a train.

If learning's what I had to do,

I've always wondered why,

Austraila's a country and a state,

my-oh-my-oh-my.

My trip to Down-Under is almost complete,

The only thing that's missing,

Is the people I would meet!
