Mirror Mirror Rhymes 01
Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why are fairies very small?
'I am only wood and glass',
The mirror said, 'So I must pass.'

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Do you even care at all?
Every question you reject
Even if we genuflect.

If All
If all the world were pickle
And all the people cheese
What a lovely mess there'd be
If everybody sneezed!

No E
E...lec...tricity
Why not Lectric let it be?
Where I come from, that's what we
Call it anyway you see.

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Will today be fine or squall?
'How should I know, go and see
The weather-man on B.B.C.'

Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why were you put there at all?
I don't like my face today
So, please look the other way.

'Mirror Mirror on the wall
Why are you not in the hall?
This is where we comb our hair
So I think you'd be better there.'

Comfort Blanket
Poetry is my comfort blanket
Holding me close in her arms;
Keeping me safe from the madness
I gladly submit to her charms.

Mirror Mirror Rhymes 04
Mirror Mirror up the tree
Why are you so mad with me?
'That joke you told', the mirror said,
'It cracked me up, and now I'm dead! '

A Dog, A Cat
A dog, a cat, a bird, a bat,
They all lived in a sailors hat;
One day he said 'I'll throw you out, '
He did, they fell
Split splat, split splat.
