Viv Wigley Poet Couplet

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.

Lindsay Laurie October 20, 2015 at 1:10 AM 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 Viv Wigley October 20, 2015 at 1:37 AM 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

Someday some kid might say, "I tried what that book said." But, that is MY imagination. Well done, Viv ...

Eileen Manassian October 19, 2015 at 10:50 PM Dear me....those last two lines, VIV....Good luck in the contest. I think adults would love this more than little kiddies. ;) Viv Wigley October 19, 2015 at 11:33 PM 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
