The Man Without A Head

Just meant for a bit of fun!

 

There once was a young man, and lacking a head

He set out to replace it with another’s instead

Through the streets he went walking, hands feeling the way

In search of a spherical head to display

 

After trying a ping pong ball he felt too light headed

A rugby ball made him feel thick, almost leaded

A tennis balls fur kept obscuring his vision

This was a search that required more precision.

 

He put the head of a snowman on top of his neck

But the coldness crept down so he took a rain check

He tried on a bowling ball, couldn’t quite hold it up

Tried an orange a mango a measuring cup.

 

He put on a clock face, was liking the look

Upside down by the evening it was back off the hook

So our young friend was fruitless and feeling the strain

Till he spotted some clay, just brown and plain

 

So squishing it firmly in place on his neck

He glanced in the mirror as if just to check

And using his fingers he moulded a face

He could smile, he was happy, today had been ace
