Under the Spell of Spellcheck

My writing’s pretty decent and my grammar’s rather swell

But I really must confess that I do not know how to spell

I started to berate myself, but figured what the heck

I’ll focus on the meter and leave spelling to Spellcheck

Of Spoons and Floors

Sarah flings her spoon

And sweet potatoes on the floor

But I have a younger brother

And I’ve seen this game before

My husband washes off the spoon

Gives it back, and then

I watch in mock surprise

As that spoon hits the floor again
