I was also amused by these two poems:
Duty of the Student
Edward Anthony
It is the duty of the student
Without exception to be prudent.
If smarter than his teacher, tact
Demands that he conceal the fact.
The art on this one just makes me laugh!
Herbert Glerbett
Jack Prelutsky
Herbert Glerbett, rather round
swallowed sherbet by the pound.
fifty pounds of lemon sherbet
went inside of Herbert Glerbett.
With that glop inside his lap
Herbert Glerbett took a nap,
and as he slept, the boy dissolved,
and from the mess a thing evolved --
a thing that is a ghastly green,
a thing the world had never seen,
a puddle thing, a gooey pile
of something strange that does not smile.
Now if you're wise, and if you're sly
you'll swiftly pass this creature by,
it is no longer Herbert Glerbett,
Whatever it is, do not disturb it.
