The Ionia Free Fair is coming to town this week, which makes this little blogger one happy camper (literally... my family camps at the fairgrounds). I LOVE the fair, although I'm one of the few in Ionia who do. I thought I'd try my hand at a 2 voice poem to show the difference between a child's view and a parent's view of a day at the fair.
UGH- Keep in mind that Blogger doesn't let me do 2 columns, so read the poem as if the two sections were side by side.
Child
The free fair is in town!
I LOVE it!
ride fair rides,
eat Frazee Fries,
watch tractor pulls,
play carnival games.
Good thing it’s a
Free Fair!
Parent
The fair is in town.
I LOATHE it.
Pay twenty dollars for a wristband to
ride fair rides,
pay five dollars to
eat Frazee Fries
Pay thirty dollars to
watch tractor pulls
Pay ten dollars to
play carnival games
I thought this was a
Free Fair…
About Me
- Ashley
- I thought I was ahead of the game after graduating with my BBA in Finance in 3.5 years... However, once I got to what I thought was the job I wanted, I realized it was completely not what I had hoped. Now that I've finished my English degree and teaching certification, I'm on a perpetual job hunt! That being said, I'm trying to balance my time between work, school, my family, friends, and my amazing fiance Josh. I've got two blogs - one for my personal life and one for my wedding plans. Check them out! I can't promise that it will be entertaining or funny, but it will definitely be ME!
