Forks Poems - Poems about Forks

Forks can be multi-purposed. I keep one in my purse for emergencies. They are good to retrieve things that slide under booths in restaurants. Helpful to dislodge cockleburs from dog's fur Part my hair when I am waiting for a friend at Gilly’s Café. A fork does not pull your hair as hard as a comb....
