'ABSURD'

I have to confess that I can't remember where I saw this cute picture. (Cute isn't a favourite word but it's apt in this case!). I do remember, however, that the photographer said it was under copyright until now, so I hope he or she doesn't mind my little flight of fancy!

BERRY ODD!

I'm a little bud called Emma.

Let me tell you my dilemma.

I'm a crazy mixed-up kid.

And yesterday I flipped my lid!

All my life I've been a berry

And I find it galling, very.

So I asked a passing fairy

If my biology could vary.

Wished I were a human being

Like the ones that I keep seeing.

I see ladies striking poses,

Pretty eyes and pretty noses.

I see eyes that open wide,

Bosoms worn with human pride.

All I've ever done is grow

How I envied those below.

No-one even looked at me

As I languished in my tree.

So the fairy cast a spell

Humanised me! She did well!

I now have the charming features

Of all those other human creatures.

See my hair. I like the style.

See my Puckish little smile!

See my eyes ! See how I flirt!

See my bosom, full yet pert!

See my nose! (A little long.)

I have wanted this so long!

But I forgot one last request;

Although I may stick out my chest,

To my tree I still am stuck!

Poor old me! I'm out of luck!
