A friend fell and smashed up his teeth and jaw, <br />And ended up in 'casualty' what's more, <br />The surgeon came to sew up his damaged face, <br />And put his teeth and jaw back into place. <br />He asked the surgeon, if he would be able to play the trumpet, <br />No problem at all, the surgeon said, superbly, that I can bet. <br />Oh, how amazing, said my friend, Gosh, I must tell my wife, <br />Because, I've never ever played a trumpet, in my life.<br /><br />Ernestine Northover<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-trumpet/
