Premium Member The Story of the Pot and the Kettle
Fresh upon the morning grove, With day becoming hot, And sitting there upon the stove, A kettle and a pot. The kettle blew and lifted high, And poured into the cup, With that to see it’s bottom by, And so the pot spoke up. “Pardon me to even know, For I don’t mean to meddle, But you are all black down below,” The pot said to...
