Lucy and Snoopy sit on the curb and watch Charlie Brown, who stands next to them and reads a piece of paper.<br> <br> They stand and face each other. "What do you have there, Charlie Brown?" "I've written a poem.." he answers.<br> <br> "Really? Read it.." Lucy commands. "All right..it isn't very long.." Charlie Brown stands between Lucy and Snoopy.<br> <br> He reads: "Some days you think maybe you know everything...Some days you think maybe you don't know anything...Some days you think you know a few things...Some days you don't even know how old you are."<br> <br> Charlie Brown smiles at Lucy. Lucy and Snoopy stare blankly ahead.<br> <br> "That's the worst poem I've ever heard!" she declares. Snoopy's ears tremble.<br> <br> She throws out her arms and exclaims: "A poem is suppoed to have feeling! Your poem couldn't touch ANYONE'S heart! Your poem couldn't make ANYONE cry! Your poem couldn't.."<br> <br> WAAH! Lucy stops as Snoopy turns away and bawls.<br> <br> "Some days you think maybe you know everything...Some days you think maybe you.." Charlie Brown sits on the curb with Snoopy in his lap and reads the poem. Snoopy sniffs. Lucy walks off: "Good grief!" she says.<br> <br>
