The Sounds of Rhyming.

Today in Celebration of Dr. Seuss Birthday, the Seuss Estate released a rare collaboration of Dr. Seuss with an iconic duo. Here is the Sounds of Rhyming, by Simon, Garfunkel and Seuss:

Hello my friend Sam-I-Am 
Do you want Green Eggs and Ham?
I can make them in the pan for you
A slice of bacon and some liver too 
And the breakfast that is causing you such pain
Still remains 
Within the sounds of rhyming 

In restless dreams of cats in hats
Narrow men in ankle spats 
Near where Horton Found a Who 
One Fish, Two Fish, One Red One Blue 
When I said Green Eggs, I would not take a bite
He said I might 
Within the sounds that rhyming 

And then the Elephant he saw 
Ten thousand Who there, maybe more 
Who were talking without rhyming
Horton heard them without listening 
Turtles mountains for Yertle to use for a chair
High in the air 
Disturb the sound of rhyming 

"Sam-I-Am, I do not know 
How a mound of Turtles grow 
Hear my rhymes that I might get through 
From Mulberry Street where I made my debut”
But my words, had messages as well 
And echoed 
In the words a rhyming 

And the Egg the lazy Mayzie laid
On top of which the Elephant stayed
And the books spoke out with their meaning
In the words and the drawings 
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets are forever in a children’s mind
no thoughts confined”
And whispered in the sounds of rhyming
