C Spent a Good Portion of the Day Flipping through a Sticker Book and Carefully Placing Many Stickers of Various Animals, Here and There, and Everywhere, Throughout its Lovely Landscape Pages.
Said I, "Isn't that B's Sticker Book?"
Said He, "No. He Gave it To Me."
"Well, Sticker Away, Then," Thought I.
The Next Morning
as I was Rushing B out the Door,
A Scuffle Came About between
the Two Brothers.
To the Effect of, "C Used MY Special Stickers in MY Book!"
"Didn't You GIVE that Book to C?" Asked I.
"Yes, But HE Wasn't Supposed to Use the Stickers!"
Oh, Mercy.
I Noticed that C was Quite Busy for the Morning
"Working on Something for B", He would Say,
Coming to Ask Me Every Once In A While
Which Letter it was that Made the "Yah" Sound, or the "Kah" Sound.
After I Took C to School,
and was Putting Things Away,
I Saw This on B's Bed:
The Be Favored Sticker Book,
A Favorite Tote,
Sonic Coupons (Always Handy),
a Lovely Drawing,
and a Note
[That Required Sagacious Thought on My Part]:
"To B,"
"I Am Sorry"
"That I Put Stickers in Your Book"
