TONGUE TWISTER

Ok I got a bit silly with this one. A woman said that words do not matter in poems. HELP! I wanted to blow up. Poems are nothing  but a wonderful collection of special words telling an amazing story. So here is a twist on "The cat walked down the street".

The slinky slithery siamese cat slipped and slid strutting down the slippery street….

silly but sweet

so simple it seems 

but say it seven times 

try it sixteen

soon your tongue will sit 

super high on the ceiling

of your mouth

You will scream

Stop stop stop

you silly miss

my jaws 

need a pause.
