Poet $100 Listen to The Mustn’ts Listen to The Mustn’ts, child, Listen to the DON’TS Listen to the SHOULDN’TS The IMPOSSIBLES, the WON’TS Listen to the NEVER HAVES Then listen close to me- Anything can happen, child, ANYTHING can be.
Poet $200 Than a Clap of Thunder Louder than a clap of thunder,  louder than an eagle screams,  louder than a dragon blunders,  or a dozen football teams,  louder than a four alarmer,  or a rushing waterfall,  louder than a knight in armor  jumping from a ten-foot wall.  Louder than an earthquake rumbles,  louder than a tidal wave,  louder than an ogre grumbles  as he stumbles through his cave,   louder than stampeding cattle,   louder than a cannon roars,   louder than a giant's rattle,   that's how loud my father SNORES!
Poet $300 My Shadow  I have a little shadow that goes in and out with me,  And what can be the use of him is more than I can see.  He is very, very like me from the heels up to the head;  And I see him jump before me, when I jump into my bed.  The funniest thing about him is the way he likes to grow--  Not at all like proper children, which is always very slow;  For he sometimes shoots up taller like an india-rubber ball,  And he sometimes goes so little that there's none of him at all.  He hasn't got a notion of how children ought to play,  And can only make a fool of me in every sort of way.  He stays so close behind me, he's a coward you can see;  I'd think shame to stick to nursie as that shadow sticks to me!  One morning, very early, before the sun was up,  I rose and found the shining dew on every buttercup;  But my lazy little shadow, like an arrant sleepy-head,  Had stayed at home behind me and was fast asleep in bed.
Poet $400 The Road Not Taken    TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth;          Then took the other, as just as fair, And having perhaps the better claim, Because it was grassy and wanted wear; Though as for that the passing there Had worn them really about the same,          And both that morning equally lay In leaves no step had trodden black. Oh, I kept the first for another day! Yet knowing how way leads on to way, I doubted if I should ever come back.          I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I— I took the one less traveled  by, And that has made all the difference.          
Poet $500 Words Like Freedom There words like Freedom Sweet and wonderful to say. On my heartstrings freedom sings All day everyday. There are words like Liberty That almost make me cry. If you had known what I know You would know why.
