Jan Allison Poet Pantoum

Notes About The Poem

He Ended Up With Egg On His Face

When three friends entered the egg and spoon race
Pooh did not think that his pals stood a chance
he's so convinced that he’d come in first place
he’d pre-prepared a new victory dance

 
Pooh did not think that his pals stood a chance
Until he dropped his boiled egg on the floor
he’d pre-prepared a new victory dance
as he had always won this race before

 
Until he dropped his boiled egg on the floor
he's so convinced that he’d come in first place
as he had always won this race before
when three friends entered the egg and spoon race
