‘If at first you don’t succeed’,
Said Robert the Bruce the King.
If at first you don’t succeed,
Then you shouldn’t try skydiving.

*****************************************************

A tutu’s
A skirt
For girls who do twirls

A toucan’s
A bird
Who shouts about stout

The can can’s
A dance
All frills and cheap thrills

A tin can
Contains
Baked beans or sardines

And Tintin’s
Plainly
A defective detective.
