student + poem

today i was asked to look over some poems written by the third year students (9th grade). it was supposed to be 5 lines. 1 word for the first line, 2 words for the second line, 3 words for the third line, 4 or 5 words on the 4th line, and one word on the final fifth line. as i was marking them, checking spelling, helping with tenses and grammar i came across this sweet little poem:

feces
very smell
smell smell smell
have a bowel movement
happy

i literally burst out laughing in the middle of a silent teacher's room!

That can't be the best example of the english education of a third year, 9th grade student......

You should remove that thing you call a "poem" off of your blog page....Dad and Suzanne
