I'M So Glad My Computer Has a 'smell Chequer'

My computer has a ‘smell chequer’
Alas it doesn't seem to work
For when I make an error
I just look a complete jerk

I know that I can smell
I can do that pretty well
But when I make an error
It often is a terror

I’m wary typing duck, I know that F is next to D
Because if I do a swear it could be a tragedy
If I’m typing the word shots I need to take great care
Because I is next to O and of this I am aware

So make sure you use your ‘smell chequer’
I am sure you will agree
Your poems will be ‘prefect’
You will get it ‘write’ like me

You must have Microsoft Word! Microsoft never has learned to "smell" a word correctly. Great piece!
