Verse And Worse

Random Wit, Errant Rhyme. Not A Literary Crime

If he hadn’t been running half an hour late
He would have discovered magnesium sulphate
But he lost his ticket and he missed his train
And the Nobel Prize went down the drain

    I'm reminded of Agent 86 aka Maxwell Smart saying, "Missed it by that much!"

    Me thinks your history book must be wrong
    The stuff was found way, way long
    Before the Nobel Prize came to be
    By the Scott, Joseph Black who lived by the sea.

    Cheers!

    Its such a strain
    having that kinda brain
    an award will have to wait
    best to leave it to fate

    I thought drains were in sinks, showers and tubs, I didn't know that was called a drain.

    But you do remind me, I need to fertilize my roses.
