Something that fits In my palm Something you don't want to stomp on With those feet. Something so small I don't know What it's called Something so bright As a Sweet Apple That I wonder If this something Is allowed to be Swallowed I pick it up With my Tiny fingers I pop it in My mouth Like what Mom does With these things She calls "pills" And I swallowed Then I could not breathe, And I panicked Coughed It stuck in my throat, Turning me the color Of the toy That's In my throat And then Remembered What it was Called.
