In my youth I'd often slip and milk or juice would slop and drip. "You're all thumbs" my Mother'd quip. And I'd be sent right back to bed. Little would stay in my cup. I spent my days just wiping up The slobbers that I'd often make. "You're all thumbs" my Mom'd berate. One dark morn my mother said You're all thumbs! Go back to bed! (I dropped a rock right on her head.)
