Parts of Speech Poemby Kim Vetter
A noun’s the name of anything,As house or garden, hoop, or swing.
Instead of nouns the pronouns stand-Her head, your face, his arm, my hand.
Adjectives tell the kind of noun,As great, small, pretty, white, or brown.
Verbs tell of something to be done-To read, count, sing, talk, laugh, or run.How things are done the adverbs tell,
As slowly, quickly, ill, or well. Conjunctions join the words together, As men and women, wind or weather.
The preposition stands before A noun, as in or through a door.The interjection shows surprise,
As Oh! How Pretty; Ah! How wise.That’s why we learn the parts of speechWhich reading, writing, speaking teach.
‘Cause grammar needs to be correct To help you earn the world’s respect.
