    There was a crooked dog owned by a crooked boy.
    He dug a crooked hole and found a crooked toy.
    They played a crooked game upon a crooked lawn
    And they both fell asleep until the crooked dawn.

    Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

    Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
    How does your poetry grow?
    With simple rhymes and stanza lines,
    Not aligned all in a row.

    Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
    How does your rhythm flow?
    With simple verse, very slow at first.
    It takes care and practice, you know.

    Mary, Mary, quite contrary,
    How does your garden grow?
    With fits and bursts, until it’s worth
    It’s place, ready to show.
