Poem: A Good Word.(extract from Bone Soup)

A Good Word
.
Bloody is a good word,
I use it when I wish,
So eat your cold black pudding
It’s a very bloody dish.
.
If you cut your finger
Shout, “It’s really really bloody,”
It’s better fun than stamping
In the rain and getting muddy.
.
Books are full of history
Of every bloody war,
Tall tales of bloody fighting
And of going back for more.
.
Oranges are tasty,
I like a bloody one,
I’m always awfully sorry
When the bloody ones are gone.
.
Bloody is a good word,
I use it every day,
There’s nothing wrong with bloody
When it’s used the proper way.
