Mushroom Musings

Words to live by

When deciding

whether to

or whether not

to eat a mushroom

that’s not store bought

Rule of thumb,

stay away from red

don’t be dumb

or you may be dead

A Mushroom Undertaking

A most deadly occurrence

you will find with assurance

if a taste of the fungus

you crave

Without careful observance

and some expert concurrence

there's not one among us

that brave

So let us use common sense

forego all foolish pretense

or those mushrooms will buy us

our grave

caps and bonnets

smooth and rough

fine as sonnets

soft as fluff

dots and stripes 

and plain vanilla

dressed to kill

if you dare taste a little
