! A Clever Poem Poem by Linda Ori

What a clever poem I wrote!
Don't you think it's great?

Let me serve you garbage
Brightly garnished on a plate;
Pile it high with rotten eggs,
Tuna fish and slime,
Top it off with whipping cream
This tasty dish of mine;
Now, some of you will love the taste
And some of you will not -
I guess your education
Will determine what is rot
And what is pure perfection,
It's a simple thing to judge -
Some will choose vanilla
And the others choose the fudge;

It's a matter of perspective,
What you like and what you don't -
Some of you'll appreciate
My taste, while others won't;
But still I'll dish the menue,
Serve it up with great aplomb -
Though I think it's a clever poem
You may think it's a bomb!
