The Fool and the Baker
A poem for my dear, sweet, Mother!
The fool of hearts was quick with a knife,
The baker was caught by surprise,
The jester crept with jovial creeps,
And thrust the blade with a turn clockwise.
The baker collapsed
For he had met his maker,
But sadly for him,
His trick had no taker.
And so I said to the baker,
”You're not dead, you're a faker!”
”But if that's your wish,”
”Then I’ll oblige…”
