Dealer

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

I'll hook you up

"

 Hey, come on…

I’ve got the stuff

Once you’re hooked,

There’s never enough.

 

Would you be craving

A nice mellow noun?

My inventory’s

The best in town.

 

Perhaps an exhilarating

Action verb

Check out this stock 

They’re really superb.

 

Jonesin’ for a thrilling

Modifier?

You won’t find

A better supplier

 

If you’re aiming to score

A clause or a phrase

These little gems

Are sure to amaze

 

I’ve even got pronouns

And interjections;

If you need the words,

I’m your vocab connection

If "Schoolhouse Rock" were still around this would be blaring on Saturday morning TV.

I am not sure what age your students are but I can easily imagine younger grade kids getting hooked on words buy injecting this.
