Losing Friends Through Poetry

Perry's Disinclination for Mushrooms A mushroom is not something new Inside some pasta or a stew. But, when it comes to feeding Perry, A mushroom is extraordinary! John's Surgery An eyeball must be a perfect sphere. If an imperfection should appear, A handy doctor, not ham-handed, Will use his head and have it sanded.

Wonderful poetry about the oddball and funny ways that Perry and John, two pals, deal with commonplace things and circumstances. It centers on their viewpoints and encounters with eyes and mushrooms.

I love mushrooms, too. You have to be crazy not to, but we actually accidentally fed mushrooms to Perry - which is strictly forbidden.
