"Your" for "You're"?!

"Your" for "You're"?!

A Poem by ThisVivian
"

This ABAB poem (except for that last crucial line) and has 100 words. It is about my annoyance at how some folks can't understand "you're".

"

Of course we ought to learn,

while attending our schools.

That should have us concern,

for there are so many rules!

 

Do you know what “you’re” means?

It is both “you are”, combined!

Those words'd make up teams:

can't people keep that in mind?!


Teachers'd teach in English class,

having us properly studying a lot.

"Your" for "you're" can harass,

ergo, see that we are taught!

 

Sheesh, it is really, just so weird:

lots of folks cannot understand!

Some people'd need their heads cleared,

seeing that grammar's a command!


Guys, please stop doing that:

grasp the matter to place apostrophes!!!

Nope, my friends and I are able to keep those words in mind.
Clever write - too true the art of grammatical correctness has been lost to many! Loved your take on this theme :-)
