Sticky Subject

Children were playing inside With a big tube of glue It was very bleak outside And they had nothing else to do Glue is very sticky And is handy to stick Things into a scrapbook That you used to have to lick They took the cap off the glue Then started to have a fight Who was going to use it first It was then the glue took flight It landed on the family cat Who wasn't that impressed The cat had glue all over him He looked miserable and depressed One of the boys grabbed the tube That lay open on the floor He accidentally trod on it And it squirted up the door Then his little sister Who was only five Slipped over on that gooey glue And sat in it and cried I am all wet and sticky I do not want to play this silly game About this time the others Were feeling just the same The glue had lost its attraction The children stood in awe They did not know what action to take As Dad appeared at the door....
