Perfect

A Funny School Poem for Kids

From the book Revenge of the Lunch Ladies

Today I managed something
that I've never done before.
I turned in this week's spelling quiz
and got a perfect score.

Although my score was perfect
it appears I'm not too bright.
I got a perfect zero;
not a single answer right.

--Kenn Nesbitt
