An enjoyable poem to go along with the adorable photo of your Sawyer, Brooke. I liked your use of all the different 'body', and your Abby rhyme made the lines sing along.
Smiles,
Karyn : )

Comment from Carolyn 'Deaton' Stephens
Somebody thinks he ought to know
and somebody says I told you so
and somebody else might want to say
you could be a 'know it all' some day
Couldn't resist.
Well done Brooke,
:-) Carolyn

Somebody wrote a poem so cute
It makes me want to follow suit...
Nice bouncy rhythm and clever incorporation of somebody, nobody, everybody and the descending line.
It's always somebody's fault!

I am always impressed by your prolific output of great poems. So may different concepts and always brilliantly rhymed. With those always characteristic pictures they are a pleasure to read. Pete

Comment from LateBloomer
Hello adewpearl, Brooke, I think someone is a thinker and a little tinker as Master Sawyer begins to master the workings of the world. I enjoyed reading your poem. It made me smile. I especially liked:
I haven't yet learned why skies are blue
or where the waves are rolling to,
but somebody thinks I ought to know,
and everyone says, "I told you so."
(Just like people ... a know-it-all ... after-the-fact)
A fun poem with silky rhyming. Keep the blue waters flowing and rivers bending, especially for Sawyer, who just might be a little stinker too - lol. LateBloomer

Hi Brooke,
I love your fun story poem coming from Sawyer's pov. The smile on his face says it all about a kids innocence.
Funny story about Sawyer and the umbrella!
Cheers & Keep Smilin'.... Jax

cleverly put together with the first line moving through the verses in lines 2/3/4
"but somebody thinks I ought to know"

good visual
good enjambment to allow free flow within verses
good AA/BB rhyme theme through verses
good rhythm and flow
cheers Smoothiecool

Comment from Giddy Nielsen-Sweep
Well that's quite a feat for a little chap! I'm not sure I could dismantle one of those things myself! I stumbled on line 1 of verse three, that jolly accent again! Delightful quatrains about a little fellow's learning process, Brooke, very nice. Giddy

Comment from mommydear42
If you don't stop posting, I'm going to run out of stars for this week. Anyway, this is delightful! It sounds like a "mama, why?" from a child. Even today, especially the youngest, with both now in their 40s, I hear "but I thought you knew everything." Such a let down to find that Mama just doesn't have answers to all of their questions.
