A Banana Peel Poem by Sandra Martyres

A Banana Peel

Rating: 5.0


A banana peel
Lay innocuously
On the floor beside her

She raised herself
From her easy chair
And lo and behold

She slipped on the peel
And went sliding right
Across the floor

There was no stopping her
All her 100 kgs went
Along with her

Some expressed concern
About the state of the floor
But no one worried about her

A few hours later
She was back her leg in a cast
With a killing look in her eyes

Little Johnny innocently
Remarked that she just needed
To follow her own rules

Had she just looked
Where she was going
Things would have been different! !

Sometimes mistakes and accidents are unavoidable you know, they are just random and you can never be prepared
