a short, humorous, five-line poem

This poem makes me laugh so hard. No one knows why. But I love it

There once was a man from Nantucket,
Who kept all his cash in a bucket,
But his daughter named Nan
Ran away with a man,
And alas for the bucket, Nan-tuck-et!

But he followed the pair to Pawtucket,
The man and the girl with the bucket,
And he said to the man,
He was welcome to Nan;
And as for the bucket, Paw-tuck-et!


children's poetry is the best

I think I appreciate this more because I'm from the Nantucket/Pawtucket area. Sorry Aly.
