Weekly Poem - The Labors of Hercules
***Work

will be graded on your performance.
The
Labors of Hercules
The great warrior Hercules
Was made out of pretty stern stuff.
He carried out twelve famous tasks,
All of them really tough.
Was made out of pretty stern stuff.
He carried out twelve famous tasks,
All of them really tough.
He
fought a lion with claws so sharp
That it could rip armor to shreds.
And then he killed a hydra, that's
A monster with nine heads.
After that he was told to go
And catch a golden deer.
The deer was very hard to catch
It took Hercules a full year.
His next task was hunting again
This time a wild savage boar.
After that he cleaned a stable
Which was full of manure.
Hercules cleaned those huge stables
In just one single day,
And then he had to go and chase
Some nasty birds away.
Next he caught a dangerous Bull
'Twas rampaging through Crete.
After that he stole some horses
That had a taste for meat.
He went to the Amazons next
And wound up having a battle.
And after that he had to go
And steal a monster's cattle.
Next he had to search the whole world
To find some special magic fruit.
And finally he caught a dog -
A huge, three headed brute.
Hercules earned a great reward
For being so strong and so clever;
His father Zeus promised him
That he would live forever.
That it could rip armor to shreds.
And then he killed a hydra, that's
A monster with nine heads.
After that he was told to go
And catch a golden deer.
The deer was very hard to catch
It took Hercules a full year.
His next task was hunting again
This time a wild savage boar.
After that he cleaned a stable
Which was full of manure.

To find some special magic fruit.
And finally he caught a dog -
A huge, three headed brute.

For being so strong and so clever;
