Sam finds Pox and Pox finds Sam
Sam went to Africa
To search for new diseases.
Caught a little pox
From a frog in the jungle,
Drew the rash
With coloured pencils
And plugged himself
With ancient herbs.
'I wonder,'
His mind was wandering,
'If the disease finds us
As much as we find it?'
Sam spent the rest of the year
Looking for a notebook
That was smaller
And more neatly coloured
Than his own.
