Wastebasket Brother

Someone put their baby brother
Under a basket-
The question is exactly why,
But I'm not going to ask it.
But someone, I ain't saying who,
Has got a guilty face,
Ashamed for letting such a lovely brother
Go to waste.

Snowball

I made myself a snowball
As perfect as could be.
I thought I'd keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first- it wet the bed.
