Shannon's Simile Spectacular

Do you ever feel like learning's a breeze
When metaphors dance right before your eyes
Do you notice how words can truly surprise
'Cause Shannon's got language skills that rise

The classroom was a zoo, wild and free
Comparisons jumping out, can't you see
The cafeteria roared like a jet taking flight
Mr. Thomas buzzing, working with all his might

'Cause baby, you're a language star
Making connections near and far
Show your brilliance, let your words ignite
You're gonna light up the classroom tonight

Kindergartners spinning like a whirlwind bold
Their energy and language stories untold
The school bell rings, the heartbeat of the day
Similes and metaphors leading the way

You just gotta spark your imagination
Let your words create pure fascination
'Cause baby, you're a language star
Making connections near and far

Boom, boom, boom
Watch your words consume
Boom, boom, boom
Shannon's linguistic bloom

You're gonna light up the classroom tonight
With similes shining oh so bright!
