1. Paul Bunyan
Poet Introduction
He rode through the woods on a big blue ox,
He had fists as hard as choppin' blocks,
Five hundred pounds and nine feet tall...that's Paul.

who sailed the Main in yesteryears.

I walked to the beach,
To collect some shells.
I stood on the pier,
And listened to the sounds.

To see just one, I'd gladly give

Troll sat alone on his seat of stone,
And munched and mumbled a bare old bone;

Poet Introduction
In my little airplane
flying way up high,
zooming through the lands of clouds
so white and grand and high,
The human mind is such a place
It's so wonderful, it leaves me amazed
God gave man so much talent
It's hard to believe how we can keep balance

It is a very mysterious place,
And inside you can tell it has a ton of space,
