Perry's Disinclination for Mushrooms

A mushroom is not something new
Inside some pasta or a stew. 
But, when it comes to feeding Perry,
A mushroom is extraordinary!

John's Surgery

An eyeball must be a perfect sphere.
If an imperfection should appear,
A handy doctor, not ham-handed,
Will use his head and have it sanded.

Wonderful poetry about the oddball and funny ways that Perry and John, two pals, deal with commonplace things and circumstances. It centers on their viewpoints and encounters with eyes and mushrooms.
