One Very Jealous Fork
You all should know Hey diddle diddle
 The cat and the fiddle,
 The cow jumped over the moon,
 The little dog laughed to see such a sport
 And the dish ran away with the spoon.
 But…
 Did you know about the fork and the spoon?
 They used to be together,
 Two birds of a feather.
 (Yes I know they’re silverware,
 But I really couldn’t care.)
 We never did know;
 Why did the spoon go?
 All I can say,
 What a Valentine’s Day!
 On their date, the spoon and the fork—
 Yes, of course, they ordered the pork!
 The day came, but oh how I wish
 That the spoon never met the smooth-talking dish.
 The dish charmed one away,
 Oh what can I say?
 Valentine’s Day brought the fork’s doom.
 Alas, the dish ran away with the spoon.
 All that was left… One very jealous fork.
 A tip from me, don’t order the pork,
 Unless you wish
 To be whisked away by a dish.
 However…
 There is a little more to this tale
 Than just a relationship failed.
 Although this may seem a little wild,
 They had had a love child.
 Don’t be silly, it was the spoon and the fork.
 The name of their child, of course, was the spork.
 Now a constant reminder of a love long forgotten,
 The spork may never know, and so, never feel rotten.
 The End
