Junior Words, 55



A High School Teacher’s Final List

List #11: (i) sanguine, (j) wheedle

You can’t be sanguine in your life
If you do what you do—
You wheedle and you gripe and whine
Until your face is blue.

So read a clever book—or see
A film that makes you laugh
So hard that in your front-row seat
You give birth to a calf!
