Another little rhyme from my collection "A Dummies Guide To The Human Body, mainly because I set myself a target for hits at AD this year but after starting well I was slacking though most of the summer and so I'm a tad desperate now.

A mouth's main job is to let people eat

It has red lips to make it look neat

With pearly white teeth

And a chin underneath

And a tongue, just to make it complete

A mouth can have lots of fun

It can eat an ice-cream or a bun

Scoff fish and chips

And make use of its lips

When snogging needs to be done
