String

A Poem from 'Silly Verse for kids'
by Spike Milligan

STRING

String
Is a very important thing.
Rope is thicker,
But string,
Is quicker.

P.S. The meaning of this is obscure
That's why,the higher the fewer.


The dedication page of 'Silly Verses' reads

This book
is dedicated to
my bank balance

Ah, Spike...what a creative, unique mind! Lovely composition - agree with the others about the contrast, it works really well. And well done to match the words to an image; very creative of *you* too. V
