A verb went to town one night <br />And met a standing noun, just right: <br />They were all dressed in grammar, <br />With a punctuation tie, <br />And semi colon earrings, <br />And some italic lies. <br /> <br />In an active tense, <br />They conveyed all their sense <br />And picked up some adverbs <br />And adjectives, in time; <br />Then they made a conjunction, <br />Just to people this rhyme.<br /><br />Patti Masterman<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-verb-went-to-town/
