DD's poem

Earlier this week I mentioned to DD that this is National Poetry Month and I'd like her to do something special for it - write a poem, read some poems, etc. She told me she wanted to write a poem. She disappeared into her room and came out shortly afterwards to present me with her poem. Here it is:

There is one thing I hate more than onions - it's math!
I'd rather go a month without a bath
Than do five questions of horrid math

I'd read a book with thus, shalt, hath,
If I could get away from awful math
With its multiplication, division, subtraction, addition
I'd rather do the most dangerous 007 mission!

But I guess in the end it can be a good thing
Even if right now it causes me brain sting.
