For a 60th birthday celebration (preserving family folklore)– 52 verses
That kitchen scene must’ve been special
With two brothers fit for a tussle
Like two gladiators, they warily circled
To see who could flex biggest muscle
Now, Jim was no fool, he spotted a tool
Those scissors were apart for to clean
With revenge on his mind and an accurate eye
Dan saw it comin’ … what a scene!
The pointed missile did miss its mark
As cabinet door got a permanent notch
And Dan looked down, his brow all a-sweat
At the ‘dagger’ just south of his crotch.
So Sarah, you’re Uncle Jim’s niece
And we’re really glad that you’re here
Let’s all be thankful for Sarah
And for Uncle Jim’s poor aim, we’ll cheer.
