  • Two Young Boys

    Two young boys with two small toys.
    Both hold a dollar bill.
    first, says a boy, hold my hand!
    his tricky plan is to grab a bill from his pal!dollarbill
    But that chap is not so dumb.
    So that chap says, you can’t nab it!
    I want it too, and I’m big!
    too big and too tall for you to hurt.
    So, says boy two, you must show it!
    with that, a punch!
    straight to his arm.
    ow! you can’t hit!
    it isn’t good!
    it isn’t kind.
    It isn’t right!
    And so young Gorby took it all!
    No fighting is bad for Gorby’s pal!
    For now that bill is lost.

  • This was the best blog post I could come up with using a keyboard with a broken ‘e’ key…

  • I’ve read this poem before. It was written by a communist.

  • @ShimmerBodyCream - I was actually thinking of Gorbachev when I named the boy. No joke.

  • Now try without O’s.

  • At first I first thought this was your own rendition of Rolf Harris’ Two Little Boys:

    Two little boys had two little toys
    Each had a wooden horse
    Gaily they played each summer’s day
    Warriors both of course
    One little chap then had a mishap
    Broke off his horse’s head
    Wept for his toy then cried with joy
    As his young playmate said

    Did you think I would leave you crying
    When there’s room on my horse for two
    Climb up here Jack and don’t be crying
    I can go just as fast with two
    When we grow up we’ll both be soldiers
    And our horses will not be toys
    And I wonder if we’ll remember
    When we were two little boys

    Long years had passed, war came so fast
    Bravely they marched away
    Cannon roared loud, and in the mad crowd
    Wounded and dying lay
    Up goes a shout, a horse dashes out
    Out from the ranks so blue
    Gallops away to where Joe lay
    Then came a voice he knew

    Did you think I would leave you dying
    When there’s room on my horse for two
    Climb up here Joe, we’ll soon be flying
    I can go just as fast with two
    Did you say Joe I’m all a-tremble
    Perhaps it’s the battle’s noise
    But I think it’s that I remember
    When we were two little boys

    Do you think I would leave you dying
    There’s room on my horse for two
    Climb up here Joe, we’ll soon by flying
    Back to the ranks so blue
    Can you feel Joe I’m all a tremble
    Perhaps it’s the battle’s noise
    But I think it’s that I remember
    When we were two little boys

    I guess not!

  • You had me at ‘young boys’
