Rock Paper Scissors (Children's Poem)

DO YOU SWEAR NOT TO HURT ME? Said the scissors to the rock I KNOW WE HAVE A HISTORY BUT I ASSURE I DO NOT MOCK! The rock looked at the paper Then he looked back at his feet I DONT KNOW WHAT TO SAY he said I THINK YOU'RE REALLY NEAT The scissors was beside herself Jumped high into the air But because she was so gleeful Snipped off some of paper's hair So paper screamed and shouted She was mad with awful rage And she jumped onto rock's back As he tried to turn the page The scissors with confusion Felt to blame and so she rushed To try and help the rock In the process getting crushed And so the rock got still Lying covered by the sheet When paper realized what she'd done She fluttered to rock's feet And cried and cried and sobbed And stared at her split ends And paper rock and scissors Would never become friends.
