Skippy

Skippy, in the beginning, was forlorn
for Skippy was, for many hours, alone. 
Nobody would touch Skippy --
everyone just stared at Skippy --
because there was nothing to spread it on.

In exasperation,
but keeping a brave smile on,
Skippy finally made a petition:

"If it's not so much to ask,
I'd like to have some form of bread brought in at last."

Finally, the white bread came along.
And that was the last time Skippy was seen alone.
For in a few minutes, Skippy was spread on bread
Shared by a group of friends.
