Best Poems Written by Michael Burnett

Jam

Why is jam so sticky?
Sticky things aren't good.
Why does jam stick to things,
more than it should?

I like peanut butter,
Normal butter too.
You can eat both of them,
without them sticking to you.

But jam is so tasty,
And tasty things are good.
Maybe I’ll eat more sticky things,
In case they're tasty food?
