Mary had a porcupine

Mary had a porcupine
Its spines were sharp as knives
And everywhere that Mary went 
Kids ran for their lives

It followed her to school one day
She didn't pay attention
All her classmates ran away
And Mary got detention

    Dear Jon This is a gem and I haven't heard the word detention in a long time. In my brothers' school they called it Jug for some reason. Kathy

    This is adorable. Hope the inspiration will lead me toward writing some children's poetry. I've been thinking about it. Very witty and creative.
