From One Strange World

Since I've been having fun with my crazy poems, here's another one from my kid's book: One Strange World. It's entitled, "Soap".
Harry slipped on a bar of soap
And broke his arm, his leg, his neck,
His clavicle, fibula, ribs and back,
His tailbone and even his toe.
But you know . . .
It's a good thing he didn't drown,
Or bite his tongue,
Or get washed down.
Things could have been worse!
He could have lost his teeth
Or lost his purse
Or caught pneumonia from the cold.
So you know . . .
It's really a blessing
What happened to Harry . . .
Anything else could have really been scary!
