Do I Look Funny, Kids- For Contest

I dreamt I took myself to bits just like you would an Airfix kit I know that sounds quite rash of me but I know my biology. I took my brain from out my head and put my bowels in there instead. And since I did that now I think I know just why my breath it stinks. I shoved my eyeballs up my bum which may seem rather odd to some but hear me out before you grumble I've seen now why my tummy rumbles. Swapped my ears round with my feet a trick that's really hard to beat I'm glad my left ear's hearing's weak it's deafening when my right shoe squeaks. My final act (now, this is class) I swapped my face round with my ass but oddly (and this makes no sense) nobody saw the difference.

Thanks Jan, I'm a bit annoyed with the beauty counter in Boots the chemist- they're charging 5p now for the bags I put over my head x

Bloody hilarious Viv... what more can I say apart from knowing a poem like this will have kids flocking to write poems like this - Lindsay

If it be so, Lindsay, then I'll be a happy bunny. I feel that kids in the modern age are missing out on the joys of poetry. Regards, Viv

Everyone that reads this will laugh or they need help. When you aren't make me teary-eyed, you are amusing me. Someday some kid might say, "I tried what that book said." But, that is MY imagination. Well done, Viv ... CayCay

Dear me....those last two lines, VIV....Good luck in the contest. I think adults would love this more than little kiddies. ;)

Thanks, Eileen, I think I was aiming for the older end of the kiddy spectrum; it's been a while since I was a kiddy, and I can't remember what made me laugh... hugs, Viv x
