Excuse Me Sir - POETRY by ~sweetcapris:iconsweetcapris:



The doctor checked my eyeballs just
to see that I saw straight
then checked my throat with popsicles
that he already ate.

And then he looted through my nose
and found that it was bare;
he hoped to find my boogies but
I flicked them on his chair.

And when the doctor checked my ears,
his eyes got rather wide.
He shrieked and looked at me and then
he looked right back inside!

“It seems to me that in your ears,
I can't believe my eyes,
I spy a case of polka dots
that's speckling the skies...
Though I just can’t believe it for
it all seems quite absurd!
A cowboy with a water gun
whose swimming from a bird?
Pirate ships and rocket ships
and hippos wearing ties,
lights and noise and drummer boys
and grandma in disguise!
And in the back the jelly beans
play poker on the moon?
We must get this all fixed!” he said
“we must get this fixed soon!”

He fumbled through his desk drawers and
he found his suck-o-matic.
“Now this won’t hurt a bit,” he said,
as sparks flew from the static.

“They’ll want to do some tests on it
and find some explanation”
I threw my hands over my ears,
“That’s MY imagination!”

Still on that silly children's poetry hook...

Submission for the I Spy contest! [link]
yayyyy

If I were to win something, I'd have to go with PRINTS. Devwear would be nice as well, but no keychains, heaven knows I've too many of those. A sub of course would always be welcomed, but really I'd like a print the most. :]

I've heard it said that people come into our lives for a reason bringing something we must learn and we are led to those who help us most to grow if we let them and we help them in return ~wicked

That always happened to me when I went to the doctor. Silly doctors.

I loved this. It was cute, like usual, and made me smile and lol =D. Yay!

Two suggestions, though (mainly typos, really):
Second stanza last line, him should be his I imagine?
and
Fourth stanza:
a cowboy with a water gun - Should the A be capitalized? It's a new sentence.

I've seen the best of love, the best of hate,
The best reward is earned,
I've paid for every single word I've ever said.
