At History I'm Hopeless

by Kenn Nesbitt  

At history I'm hopeless.

At spelling I stink.

In music I'm useless.

From science I shrink.

At art I'm atrocious.

In sports I'm a klutz.

At reading I'm rotten.

And math makes me nuts.

At language I'm lousy.

Computers? I'm cursed.

In drama I'm dreadful.

My writing's the worst.

There's only one subject

I'm sure I would pass,

but they don't teach

video games in my class.

2.  What parts of the body are mentioned in the song? Identify them on the picture below:

3. What do think is it a sad or a happy song?  (  )       (  )  

To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,

Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,

To the last syllable of recorded time;

And all our yesterdays have lighted fools

The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!

Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,

That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,

And then is heard no more. It is a tale

Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,

Signifying nothing .. 

 Shakespeare  

Well, Life is full of beauty. Notice it. Notice the bumble bee, the small child, and the smiling faces. Smell the rain, and feel the wind. Live your life to the fullest potential, and fight for your dreams
