My Spatula

from the ABC set Humorous Ramblings

My Spatula’s
spectacular
it turns my eggs with ease.
It loves to skate across my pan
and slither through the grease.

My Spatula’s
like Dracula;
(all black with plastic teeth).
it doesn’t bite into the flesh;
it just slips underneath.

My Spatula’s
a tarantula,
it stalks its evil prey.
If you don’t think food is evil;
eat round our house some day!

My Spatula’s
A fly killer
It splats them on the wall
The only drawback there of course
There’s ‘splats’ all down the hall

My Spatula’s
my singular
best tool in all the world;
It slithers, slips and stalks and splats
and is not just for girls!
