10 Amendments Poem

Here's this stupid poem I had to write for Social Studies. i'm only posting it on the net so I can get to it from school.

Amendment one you see,
Is important as can be,
It lets us print and say
And protest as we may.
Amendment two is fine,
You use it all the time
And what it does
Is let you own a gun.
Amendment three states
That in a time of peace
No soldier shall
Stay at a civilian’s place.
Amendment four guarantees
That the police
Can never search your home
And your items may never seize.
Amendment five’s important
It states you can’t be in court
More than one time
For the same crime.
It also protects you
From self-incrimination
And also it protects you
From private property abdication.
The sixth amendment grants you
A quick and speedy trial
And you may have a jury
All the while.
The seventh Amendment says
In suits at common law…
If twenty dollars or more the controversy,
Than there may be a jury.
The eighth amendment protects
Those in jail
From cruel, unusual punishment
And excessive bail.
The ninth amendment’s nice
It gives the People the rights
Not stated in the Constitution
To protect them from execution.
The tenth amendment gives the states,
The right to make laws
Not stated in the Constitution
So let’s give it a big applause!


OK, I am giving you permissino to LOL.
