Opposites

Opposite Poem

I love schools.
I dislike fools.

I have lots of hair.
I want more underwear.

My friends say I am cool.
My family thinks I’m a fool!

One day I will be a prince.
I will never be a princess!

My favorite foods are pizza and desert.
I will never eat fur, and certainly not dirt!

I feel sad when I get in trouble.
I feel happy when people think I’m lovable.

I feel safe at home.
I feel scared when I’m alone.
