Silver and Gold.

An absolute marvel, like the sun, gold is a precious metal. Unlike silver, which you can see almost everywhere. Gold is greed, really only to behold But silver is there when you need it, like a neighbor. People covet gold just because it's a valuable beauty. Gold, although a magnificent sight, can really do nothing. Silver is used to make tools such as hammers. With the smooth touch, their loud bangs, Gold and silver, yet different are in ways the same. //Gold is on rings but silver sings// //So what do you think is the metal king?//  __** Spinosaurus **__   ** To the Spinosaurus, you're a worthless rat. ** As giant as a skyscraper, you'd better watch out,  he'll devour you without a thought. It has a fan, what a lucky guy   On summer days he'll be cool while you fry. Imagine how much he has to eat to be satisfied, why, he'd probably eat your house and then onto the next. This fan of his makes him 40 feet tall. Crunch, stomp, bang, boom. He is as heavy and the size of he moon. Much older than cavemen, it makes you wonder why we don't have built in fans. It's because the victor is the Spinosaurus. Ferrari’s Drive

The engine roared to life,

The sound as sharp as a knife.

This is just the perfect day

Where you want to drive anyway

Let’s go to McDonalds and get some food

Driving on this gorgeous day will put you in a very good mood

As you put in the key, the lights blink on

The radio starts to sing a song.

Everyone looks as you drive downtown

With this red smooth car, nothing can get you down right now.

When the day is done, you head on home

Tomorrow where are you going to roam? ** Lightning **

What’s that racing rapidly across the sky?

Lightning, so ferocious it’ll make you cry.

It’s sound, thunder makes a boom,

Lightning gives many people a tomb.

Right there the bolt of lightning is there and gone.

The bolt doesn’t even bother to make a song.

Only appears during the rain

It certainly can cause you a lot of pain.

It’s a form of static electricity

Admired a lot in the city.

Lightning lashes like a whip

Remarkable in nature, it’ll give your day a kick. ** Parade  ** Bang, bang, la-di-da, It’s the big parade, hoorah! The music is louder than a cold-blooded scream Shout and cheer, by all means. See that band, that’s not all there’s more

Oh we have plenty more in store. Clickety, clickety, smash, BOOM! The horses and cannons are here. The cameras zoom. Have some sweet smelling popcorn or blue cotton candy Feeling warm? Have some cold delicious ice cream, how handy! This isn’t everyday, it’s the day of the parade. Everybody now, Hip hip, Hooray!
