The Magical Teaspoon

The magical teaspoon Shiny like sun in the afternoon Dull like the dreaded vaccine Yet a powerful little machine The liquid loves to swirl on her stage The silent waves sit on her miniscule page It's a joy to be small because she runs at her own pace Low expectations yet she's never late To give the medicine to the sickly child To stir the sugar in the tea in such a style To measure in her scale, sometimes piled She does it all from fork to knife in urgency's tide
