POT LUCK

 Recently, Martin Jensen visited the Pen Museum at Gundagai and bought a pen. To try it out.he wrote this verse, trying to stick to one syllable words. It should cheer all amateur potters.  


One fine day
I threw clay.
Made a pot.
Fired it hot.
Went to fete.
Got there late.
Put a price
To entice.
Many pots.
Lots and lots.
Colours bold.
Not one sold.
Took mine home.
Scratched my dome,
Feeling blue.
What to do?
Put on shelf.
Looked like Delf.
Very fine
And still mine.
Useful too.
Quite a coup.
Keys and cash.
Perfect stash.

You can find Martin's books on Buzzword.
