Mother Goose Poem, by Norman Flagtea, at My poetic side

This is the house that Jack built

this is the deer that Tom killed

this is the class that Jill taught

this is the car that Frank bought

this is the sand that Rose sifted

this is the rock that Nell lifted

this is the shin that Joe kicked

this is the ear that Jim pricked

these are the hands that Anne clapped

this is the wife that Tim slapped

this is the card that Joan sent

this is the dime that Lee spent

this is the wine that Pam drank

this is the ship that Steve sank

this is the girl that Bill liked

this is the drink that Jane spiked

this is the sea that Mike sailed

this is the test that Rick failed

this is the tree that Will cut

this is the door that Meg shut

this is the egg that Dick fried

this is the tear that Lou cried

I like how you built this... it is full of suggestion and hints at lives and stories and loves and tragedies. Very witty.
