Elton Camp Poet Rhyme

The Importance of Spaces

The Importance of Spaces

By Elton Camp

Use of spaces between words is quite vital
This is true in the case of a professional title
“Therapist” became “The Rapist” on a door
By the insertion of just a single space more

“Fashion Exchange” is a resale clothing store
Which sells only things that were worn before
Another, surely used children’s clothes does carry
But, “KIDSEXCHANGE” makes all parents wary
