Freshly Squeezed
Paper Cuts
There’s an old saying
That the pen is
Mightier than the sword
But I’m more afraid
Of the white stuff
Underneath the written word
Now I’ve never had
A limb lopped off
Or felt a swift blade’s sting
But I know all too well
The pain that a well-placed
Paper cut can bring
So put away
Your pens and swords
And unsheathe your finest sheafs
For a battle not of wits
Or knightly fits
But of pain beyond belief!
Troublesome Bubblegum
A girl who once chewed too much bubblegum
Found that her habit was troublesome
Blowing bubbles so bloated
She hovered then floated
To a space telescope – the Hubble one!
