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.
