You probably know Dr. Seuss because of his books like the Cat in the Hat and The Loorax. But I bet you don’t know that he was a poet. Some of his famous poems were Green Eggs and Ham, and the Cat in the hat. Some were based on his books he wrote.

I do not likethat Sam-I-am!

Do you likegreen eggs and ham?

I do not like them,Sam-I-am.I do not likegreen eggs and ham.

The Cat in the HatThe cat in the hat

With red and white stripesWith an exotic, exuberant faceBringing chaos from one place to other

He does wacky thingsTo amuse the childrenHe makes everything he canTo make the children laugh

He yells, he jumps, he follows his id sideHe laughs, he smiles, doesn't follows directionsHe's white, and black, a mixed creationHe uses, a big bow, its red as the stripes

Is everything about funHe can't think about moreIts time, to fix the damageCan be fun, but not as a massage

The cat in the hatNeeds help to solve thatThing 1, Thing 2Will help forward all

The momIs closeShe unlocks the doorIs hard, to know, the kids are coolNormal, as beforeBye bye to the cat
