Poem: The Invention of the Backscratcher

I have an itch on my back

that keeps annoying me.

I find it itchier than

the sting of a bee!

I have an itch on my back

that keeps annoying me.

I told my grandma,

and she said, "Drink some tea."

 

I have an itch on my back

that keeps annoying me.

I told my baby cousin,

but all he said was, 

"One, too, tree!"

I have an itch on my back

that keeps annoying me.

I told the homeless guy on the street. 

He said, "I'll help you for a fee."

I paid the man 

a buck or two.

He gave me a stick

covered in poo.

I had an itch on my back

that kept annoying me.

I now have a backscratcher,

and I'm as happy as can be!
