Pat Adams Poet Rhyme

Shirley Has Fleas

Shirley has a flea circus
She keeps in a bag she bought
She ties the bag shut real well
So escape for them is naught

A rendition of Hamlet 
They would play for all the nerds
All on top of a scrabble board
She calls it, a play on words!

She had those small actor fleas
In that bag that she had got
So none of them could escape
When tied with a Shirley knot!
