You want me to write an article about a T-rex?
That doesn’t sound too complex.
Is there any more to know besides its large body and small arms?
I think a simple poem would do the charm.

Up to 40 feet in length and 12 feet in height,
The world’s voted favorite dinosaur is very spacious.
A carnivore bite after bite,
This dinosaur ruled the Cretaceous.

Its name in Latin means “Tyrant Lizard King,”
A perfect representation of its capabilities to fight.
Some argue it might have had feathers and wings,
One thing we know for sure is it lacked flight.

A T-rex weighed from 5 to 8 tons,
However, it could run twelve miles an hour.
These creatures laid eggs to hatch daughters and sons,
Creating a whole family of power.

Would I like to have Tyrannosaurus Rexes around today, should I confess?
Without a doubt, I’d have to say no.
