Warning

• Inside everybodys nose
• There is a sharp-toothed snail.
• So if you stick your finger in ,
• He may bit off your nail .
• Stick it up farther up inside ,
• And he may bite off your ring off .
• Stick it all the way up and he
• May bite the hole darn thing off!
• By SHEL SILVERSTEIN

The Edge of the World

• Columbus said the world was round?
• Dont you believe a word of that .
• For Ive been down to the edge of the world,
• Sat on the edge where the wild wind whirled,
• Peeked over the ledge where the blue smoke curls,
• And I can tell you, boys and girls ,
• The world is FLAT!

The Spider and the Fly

• Will you walk into my parlor ?
• Said the Spider to the fly ,
• Tis the prettiest little parlor that you ever
  did spy the way into my parlor is up a winding
  stair,
• And I have many curious things when you are
  there.

Could have Been Worse

• My friends never seen London,
• Theyve never been to France ,
• But yesterday at recess
• They saw my underpants.
• I kicked the ball , my skirt flew up
• And I know what they saw
• The girls all stared and blushed laughed
• The boys said Oo-la-la!

Could have been Worse

• Ive thought a lot about it.
• This conclusion I have drawn
• Im embarrassed that they saw them,
• But Im glad I had them on.
