Elton Camp Poet Rhyme

Nobody Likes Fruitcake

Nobody Likes Fruitcake

By Elton Camp

Who would want a fruitcake as a gift
It would be far better to receive a fifth

Nobody is going to be at all thrilled
To get something with calories filled

Especially since it is hard and dry
To cut or bite it, you needn’t try 

As a doorstop, a fruitcake is okay
So don’t too quickly throw it away

Or you can hit an intruder in the head
So maybe keep it alongside your bed

But those from the store or received as "gifts" are generally horrible. Elton
