The Book Worm and Oh My

The Book Worm

Slipping into the pages, yellow with age, the book worm finds himself hungry, always hungry. He crawls onto the page and takes a bite. A whole is left in the sentence, on the page, "Ignorance is ____"...he crawls to the top of the page and disagreeing with what he reads, he takes another bite out of the page, "____ spreads awareness and ______ soreads fear"... satisfied he leaves the book behind. The boy who comes much latter to read the book, is stumped by the puzzle, soon though he decides to add his own words into the blanks, filling the wholes and learning much more than if he had just read the book with its original words.

Oh My

Smash Crackle Pop
Goes the boy drumming
on his metal pot

Blam Bash Crack
crashes the boy into
the cook and the maid
whove been caught in
the pantry closet.
