Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious Poem by Justin Reamer

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious



This word is a long one
Coined by the great Walt Disney
But I could not imagine it being sung but
By the country singer Kenny Chesney.

It was made for a special musical,
Based off a book series called 'Mary Poppins; '
It was indeed unique,
And was not to be copyrighted by John Hopkins.

The word was a bit big,
As you can see,
But once Julie Andrews sang it out,
It wasn't that hard to me.

And even though it looks so big,
Which Andrews calls 'atrocious, '
It is actually quite special,
Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.

Now, this word had one break-through;
It had song for memorisation.
Now, why can't we do that?
Have big words for inspiration?

Why can't we come out with songs,
So that words are easier to remember?
Why can't we do something creative,
Like the West Ottawa senior did last September?

I can think of many songs,
But I just can't say.
There could be just anything,
Not just one certain way.

Titin could have a special song,
Taht is to say, its scientific name,
And if it can be remembered,
Thane it would be quite a game.

What about that long word?
That's Greed for a sea food feast?
What can we do with Sophocles' play
So it doesn't sound like a beast?

We can do something like Mississippi,
In which first graders say it ten times fast;
And trust me, with their little minds,
They will have a blast.

What about the lung disease;
What can we do with that?
We can treat it like baseball,
With a pitcher and a bat.

Now, big words aren't all that bad,
If you face reality;
If you really think about it,
They're one big family.
