Russell Sivey Poet Grook

Squeaky Wheel

There was a wheel that squeaked
Not a sound in the world like it
My senses were surely peaked
Drove me crazy, gave me a fit
The air in the tires leaked
No piece of it worked, not a bit
The whole bike when moved creaked
I could do nothing but come sit
Sound of the wheel sure freaked
So I got off my bike and quit

Entrant into Suzette Crous's "A GROOK FOR ALL OCCASIONS" contest
