It's become common at school to see people talk about which celebrity said what or how countries are declaring war on each other. You know who you never hear any controversies about? You know who carried the childhood of the now young adults in the workforce? The one and only Peppa Pig. To honor that, an ode:
Move over Shakespeare, your quill is dusty
Peppa is jumping in muddy puddles, keeping them boots crusty
Hamlet? No, he is moody and barely relatable
Peppa eats chocolate cake, far more palatable
Drake, you whisper feelings which are soft like a pillow
Peppa yells "Muddy puddles!"; far more heroic and yellow
Kendrick raps fire, deep, political, and dark
Peppa says "Oink oink!" and it hits the mark
Obama smiles, gives speeches, and inspires
Peppa snorts, wears boots, and never tires
Who needs a Nobel for fancy talk
When Peppa Pig waddles, the world stops to see that walk.
