Analysis of The Pin



25000 points I went over today.
Yippy, ho-rah, and hooray.
Now I will get my poetry pin.
But what will I do with it then?

Maybe set it up in a nice display.
Then show it to everyone all day.
What about putting it on a self.
Right next to my little Nome elf.

I'll wear my pin through thick and thin.
Because to get it a lot I had to type in!
