For today's blog of the day, I want you to read the following poem by Jack Prelutsky, called As Soon As Fred Gets Out of Bed:
As soon as Fred gets out of bed,
his underwear goes on his head.
His mother laughs, "Don't put it there,
a head's no place for underwear!"
But near his ears, above his brains,
is where Fred's underwear remains.
At night when Fred goes back to bed,
he deftly plucks it off his head.
His mother switches off the light
and softly croons, "Good night! Good night!"
And then, for reasons no one knows,
Fred's underwear goes on his toes.
As you can see, not all poems need to be serious and dull, but they can also be fun and silly. For today's blog, post up a paragraph about Fred and why he wears his underwear on his head. Maybe it's just because he likes to be different, or maybe it's for a very important reason- it's up to you. Are there other odd things that Fred does too? Use your imagination to tell us more about Fred.
