Idea

I have a great idea!
Now to find the stuff I’ll need;
A purple feather boa,
A shiny golden bead,

A whisker from a kitten,
An orange cut in half,
Some black and white confetti,
A hair from a giraffe,

A little bamboo basket,
A half a cup of flour,
Some dandelion seedlings,
A maid paid by the hour,

An ounce of molten lava,
A stack of sturdy bricks,
A dozen chocolate donuts,
A poodle doing tricks

I’ve got it all together,
All gathered, hired, and caught.
It’s too bad my idea
Is the one thing I forgot!
