    A Pancake the Size of the Sun By 2BJ

    Were making a pancake the size of the

    sun,

    A pancake that's sure to weigh more

    than a tonne,

    A pancake too massive to pick up and

    throw,

    A pancake resplendent with oceans of

    dough.

    Were topping our pancake with

    mountains of honey,

    With acres of chocolate that costs lots

    of money ,

    With syrups, ice-cream, and toppings

    galore,

    With every last cherry they had at the

    store.

    Our pancake is sure to be one of a kind,

    Our pancake will leave other pancakes

    behind,

    Our pancake will be a delectable treat,

    That all who love pancakes are welcome

    to eat.

    The oven is hot, we believe it will take

    A year and a half for our pancake to

    bake.We can hardly wait til our pancake is

    done,

    Our wonderful pancake the size of the

    sun.
