Phoebe’s Poem
The alphabet was in a line
Each letter side by side Do you want to
Raising arms or hanging tails
A full twenty‐six wide. go steady?
When G went off to do something
The P came sidling up
Taking the place beside the H
And starting to chat him up.

Let’s walk together, you and I,


We’d make a super team;
We’re much more interesting than F
We’d make the spelling scene!

And that is how, from time to time,


At least so I have heard
That P and H have come to be
A couple in a word!
