Words

By Eloise Greenfield

Oh, I love those wacky words

Those crazy words that crack me up,

Like dibbily-doobily-doo and such,

They don’t mean much,

But oh, I love them so.

Oh, I love those wicked words,

Those mean, mean words

From the mouths of sorcerers,

Who point and yell

And cast a spell, saying

“You will sleep for a thousand years.

I will not change,

So stop your tears. Sleep!

And the good folks fall and then lie still,

While I hug myself

To hold the chill

Brought on by those

Wicked words
