Know Miss Takes

Wigh is spelling sutch a pane?
I got zeroe for my test ageighn!
Its fine for yoo to larf and laffe
Becaws I can knot spell "giraughf"
Dozen't anybody cair
That Inglish sppelling is not fare?
Just when I have got one rool
The neckst wun tricks me like a fule.
I lern and lirn and lerrn and lurn;
Sew won day it will be my tearn -
If I wirk all day and werk all neight -
Too get every single word all write wright rite right.
ALRIGHT!
