Today’s prompt (which you can read here) was to write a poem that poses a series of questions.

So here is my poem – it’s a bit daft but I was at work today so it was written in a mad dash!

 

Questions you always forget the answer to

Can you go at 60 or 70 on a dual carriageway?

Is it grass that makes straw, and wheat that makes hay?

 

Do you do two loops or three for a triple crochet stitch?

Is life a bowl of cherries or just an utter bitch?

 

Does the blackbird really sing in the dead of night?

Is it stoats or is it weasels that turn winter-white?

 

Should you pull out a tick? Or douse it with whisky?

Can you eat reheated rice, or is it too risky?

 

And what was the name

of that bloke

in that sitcom

about the bookshop –

ooh you know –

he was in the Bill

wasn’t he,

once,

and in Casualty,

and then he was surprisingly good

in that Channel 4 drama

 that made his career?

 

And remind me, how do you spell diahoa…dioah…diarrhoea?
