Navy pier feels so dizzy that you get sea sick
An angel is as sweet as a ladybug
A radio is as loud as a bear fight
A toilet is as flushy as a bear flushes
A tube is so big I can fit lake works in it
Babe Ruth is as good as a wolf beating a fox

A daisy is as yellow as the sun.
The ocean as blue as the sky.
A cloud is as white as a skull.
A sock is as hard as wood.
A car is as fast as the wind.
A couch is as soft as a pillow.
A book is smarter than me.
An airplane is as big as my dad.
Grass is as green as leaves.
An eagle is as bald as my teacher.
A tiger is as brave as a monster.
Spiderman is as dumpy as a frog.
Paper is as blank as nothing.

A horse is as loud as an aunt
