The table set,
with food galore,
glasses, cutlery,
no room for more,
and then disaster!
Faster than you could say, “Oh, dear!”
the table top did sudden clear,
with leaves that fell,
from up to down,
and contents dropping,
(no chance for stopping),
did cause a frown
upon my face,
the smile had gone;
and the fallout was a bomb-site
second only to none.
