If Dr. Seuss
Were alive today
He'd be 1-0-8,
And we'd shout "Hooray!"
Since his very first book
We've become entranced
With the worlds he created
And fun words he enhanced.
In a world with a Cat
And a Sneetch and a Grinch
Our brains filled with wonder,
Yes every last inch.
We love Dr. Seuss
For the books he wrote,
For the messages he sent
And the dreams he awoke.
We admire your books
And so it's fittin'
You get the last
Of this silly poem I've written:
“Today you are You,
that is truer than true.
There is no one alive who is Youer than You.”
Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!
