A boy, whose mother liked to whip
his hide whenever he gave lip,
hid in the box designed for bread
and in the morning he was dead.

I second Susan's comment! I love your poems about children. Your twisted humor makes it so fun for the parents too! Not sure how funny I think this is (or just sad) . But, either way, great work. Sincerely, Mary
