Birthday Problems

Adjunct to Bright's birthday post, I will post this poem that he wrote out loud over his breakfast cereal on his 6th birthday.  We have been studying and writing poetry in class lately, and he is on a bit of poetry kick.

This one he titled, "Birthday Problems."

BIRTHDAY PROBLEMS
If you had your birthday in the sky
what good would it do for your remote control car?
But you could fly your remote control helicopter.

If you had your birthday under ground
what good would it do to fly your remote control helicopter?
But you could drive your remote control car.

If you had your birthday under water
what good would it do to use the power?
But you could use your remote control submarine.
It has waterproof power.

If you had your birthday above ground
it would be good to use the remote control helicopter
and the remote control car,
but not the remote control submarine.
