For sale

Today I’m placing an ad on Ebay

“One naughty child for sell”

I’m not quite sure what to say

Except I promise he don’t smell

.

He won’t do as he’s told

He’s always playing pranks

He wears shorts out in the cold

He even tries to rob the banks

.

He thinks he’s as good as gold

He don’t take no for an answer

When he was born he broke the mould

He’s even put his sister in the freezer

 .

I’m sure there’s someone out there

Who wants a naughty child

One who will scream and swear

One who’s so totally wild

 .

I thought about and worked out what to say

By six pm they were queuing at the door

T’was only an hour ago I placed the ad on EBay

I know him and his mischief they will adore

.

    Great write, sis. I was just reading Sky News and a lady in Germany ACTUALLY put her baby on eBay!

    Great humour behind this sis, some great rhymes as well!

    One thing, in the second to last line, have you missed out 'day'? It's just it reads like this at the mo -

    'Twas only an ago' I wonder if 'day' should be there.

    Great write, good luck in the contest!
