by Peter Dixon <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I'd like to be a teabag, <br />And stay at home all day - <br />And talk to other teabags In a teabag sort of way. <br /> <br />I'd love to be a teabag, <br />And lie in a little box - <br />And never have to wash my face <br />Or change my dirty socks... <br /> <br />I'd like to be a teabag, <br />An Earl Grey one perhaps, <br />And doze all day and lie around <br />With Earl grey kind of chaps. <br /> <br />I wouldn't have to do anything, <br />No homework, jobs or chores - <br />Comfy in my caddy <br />Of teabags and their snores. <br /> <br />I wouldn't have to do exams, <br />I needn't tidy rooms, <br />Or sweep the floor or feed the cat <br />Or wash up all the spoons. <br /> <br />I wouldn't have to do a thing, <br />A life of bliss - you see.... <br />Except that once in all my life <br /> <br /> <br />I'd make a cup of tea!<br /><br />Terry Donovan<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-d-like-to-be-a-teabag/
