The doctor saved the day

The Girl Who Stuck a Sweet Up Her Nose

She said it was cherry but we’ll never be sure

She jammed it in sideways, a bold little blur

Her dad said “Stop it!” but she grinned and froze

Then proudly announced, “It’s gone up my nose”

Mum dropped the washing and screamed from the sink

Her dad just shook his head and tried not to blink

The doctor just sighed, said “This isn’t my first

Was it fizzy?” he asked, “Because that makes it worse”

It started to fizz like a firework gone wrong

She hiccupped and snorted and hummed a weird song

A bubble came out with a sugary spray

Her nose put on shows all through that day

They tried a small vacuum, they tried a long tweezer

She said “I don’t mind, it just makes me sneeze-er”

The doctor leaned close with a mutter, “Oh please”

She sneezed out a jet and dropped him to his knees

At last the sweet shifted and rolled clean away

The doctor just muttered, “Take her home please, I pray”

    Another cute one and I bet would be a good remember poem to read to preschoolers and Kindergarteners 'Did you ever poem'. Still think you should put all these into a regular book. Good job and really like all the pictures you chose.
