Cucumber Pie Poem by Edward A. Morris

Are cucumbers cool
As a general rule?
How fresh is a daisy?
Are loons always crazy?

How snug is a bug
When he's not in a rug?
How gentle are lambs
If not happy as clams?

How clever's a fox
That's as dumb as an ox?
How fit is a fiddle
Not clean as a whistle?

Are doornails most dead,
Or are dodos instead?
Is it drier than toast
To say “deaf as a post”?

Such puzzles befuddle and much mystify
Till suddenly you see they're as easy as pie!
