The Discoverer Of Words
“Meniscus!
Hibiscus! ”
He chanted
again & again
when he was seven
delighted to discover
such words
words such as these!
Magic!
Sheer magic!
Meanwhile
pretending he’s a magician
he replaces the usual
hocus-pocus of abracadabra
with these
new discoveries.
Now, if only
he knew
what they mean?
