For the extra credit assignment, I elected to compose and write a song and poem. The following song is a variation of “Rain Rain Go Away”, which is a nursery rhyme. The song below follows the same melody/tune as “Rain Rain Go Away.” This is in many ways both a song and a poem in that it has a melody and also rhymes. Red Red Go Away, Come Again on Wednesday I need to finish these APTs, So you need to leave, please, please, please! I only have til 12 o’clock, Which means you need to take a walk I have worked so hard to find the solution, So green, you need to make a substitution! Green, green come to me, I would like to get a degree If you don’t, I will get scared, And that might make me unprepared And then when the exam arrives, I’ll be deprived Of all of the information the green could have given me So I beg you, please I’ll even get on my knees To change that red to green.
