The Sardine

The Sardine

      (How the best laid plans
      can sometimes go wrong)


     The Sardine is an unusual fish,

     It spends all its life in a tin

     On top of a Superstore shelf

     So other fishes cannot get in.

     But their plan was not so ingenious

     As they sooner or later found out

     They left the opener on the outside

     Now the Sardines cannot climb out.
