Rewritten


Scotties Shade

Scottie surmised
Lettuce leaves should
Supply a solution
Seeking some sort of strategy

Scottie saw two sticks
~ well sort of twigs really
So stabbed them into the ─
Soggy soil from last nights storms

They scaled the side of a soft lettuce
And sailed slowly down
Smacking the soggy lettuce leaf
On to the two sticks

Forming what Scottie thought —
To be a super special sun shade
From the scorching midday sun
So he was very smitten

He scaled the soggy lettuce once more
To scribble a slimly gooey slug slime note
Thanks for the shade cloth and remember
Sunnies, slop. slip, slap, shade before drawing a smilie!
