The Tale Of Starchy Archie, Your Potatoey Friend

Starchy Archie
Could not march he
Didn’t have any legs.
Instead he had some teaspoons
Which were attached with pegs.

He rolled around the kitchen floor
Until he was quite bruised,
And then he found some eggshells
Which he then wore as shoes.

He clip-clopped to the freezer
Where the ice-cubes helped him out -
They gave him chips for arms as he had
Politely declined the trout.

Now smelling like an omlette,
Archie hobbled without a care
And was thrilled to find some piles of dust
Which he fashioned as his hair.

Now if you ever see Archie,
Waddling past your feet,
Think of him as an inscentive
To keep your kitchen neat!
