SCHOLAR - SERENE
I once knew a Ten-o'Clock Scholar Who was never hot under the collar We all thought him serene Till a thinking machine Took his job, with a hood and a holler!

When I was at school we learned Craft; I remember the other kids laughed When I sandpapered wood Much more than I should, And the teacher yelled: "Scrap it – you're daft!"

Doc Frankenstein's nurse, named Babette, Dribbled HCl from a burette. The corpse stared to bubble, Rubbed its palm o'er its stubble, Mumbled, "Babs, I need a cigarette."

My chance of survival was low When a street tramrail caught my shoe's toe; But although I was stuck, I had some good luck, For the trams on that day were quite slow.

Some youths made a rowdy incursion, But the innkeeper's timely inversion Of two of their chairs Took them quite unawares, And spoiled their pub-crawling excursion.

A genius, most people think, Needs constant advice from a shrink. One such used to glide Round my college wild-eyed, But that was entirely through drink.

A shawm will be made out of wood With a reed reinforced by a hood.* With its double reed, shallow It sounds rather sallow; An ill wind that no one blows good. *also called the “pirouette.” See Wikipedia, here, BROMELIAD - BROWN

"Post description in bakeries, as she is a known cake eater." King Arthur has flour, Sir Galahad; Whole Foods offers flowers, Bromeliad. A delicate happening, cake, chocolaty brown; One can not wear such a heavy crown. Nonetheless, she sighed, "Best I ever had."
