Alphabet Soup

Ahem...

She made Alphabet Soup for supper tonight,

I’m just a dumb kid, but it doesn’t seem right,

It gives me the squiggles, it gives me the quease,

To eat all the A's and the B’s and C’s.


She says, “Oh what fun! You can eat what you spell!"

But when I spell the word liver, I don’t feel very well,

My brother spelled puke and then gobbled it quickly

My sister spelled spinach and and made me feel sickly.


I tell ya, Alphabet Soup makes me just want to flee.

I’ll go to bed hungry, May I be excused please?

This silly little poem is linked to Alphabe-Thursday's Alphabet Soup. To read the other entries, just click here.

That is just too cute. Now I feel badly that in all my 71 years, I have never had alphabet soup. Must correct that.

Too funny! My kids love eating bunny-shaped pasta, but every time they ask to "eat bunnies for supper" I can't help but cringe!

This is just too darn stinkin' cute girl and it makes me want some alphabet soup!!!

I used to love to make words with it and Mama would get so agitated that I was 'playin' with it and not snarffin' it down!

Have a fun day sweetie filled with many blessings!!! :o)

I love alphabet soup. Only the letters are so soggy and warped I am not sure I can even decipher the letter. But yummy still the same.
Love your little ditty!

Terra said...

Very cute Jenny, and while I loved it as a kid, I don't think it tastes the same anymore or something because my kids don't like it at all!

It's a very cute poem, and like Terra, I couldn't eat it now either..

Thanks so much for visiting me. I don't know how you do it. I just can't keep up with all of the blogging. Is there a secret to it?
