Thanks for the lovely birthday gift you gave me exactly 7 months and 24 days later. This makes it the second birthday gift I get this year. Well, thats just how popular I am. Its fantabuloustically funny.
"Wicked Poems". And it has great illustrations too! So, i decided to post your favourite poem from the book.
The Kleptomaniac
Beware the Kleptomaniac
Who knows not wrong from right
He’ll wait until you turn your back
Then steal everything in sight.
(Be it a carrot or coal)
From the beggar his bowl
The leaves of a tree
(Pretty mean you’ll agree)
From out of a pot
And scoff the whole lot
there in its cot?)
From the conductor on stage
Page by page
As you bask in the sun
From out of your bun
He’ll lift the wind
Right out of your sails
And make off with your nails
Things just disappear
Th re’s one ar und h re!
