My thoughts today, if “U” were “I”
imagine how to justify
An accidental “switcheroo”
would change it all around for you
You thunk you typed the word to think
That brunk you right back from the brink
That truck that you drove home last night
would be a trick! that sheds some light!
If “I” were “U”, I’d check my work
a duty that we ought not shirk
with sicks and sucks and picks and pucks
and don’t forget those ticks and tucks
Good Luck would now be a Good Lick
not bad but you know, it might stick
and serving Duck would be a kick
instead, you would be serving @!@!
And Just in case anyone thinks that the last line is “bawdy”
I was referring to the British pudding with dried fruit!!!
