I do not know the original verses of this often used poem. I am thankful though to the author for penning the lines that anybody could use as a slogan to his calling. Just provide a rhyme that suits you. The most familiar I heard so far was[b][/b][i][/i]Roses are red, violets are blue, flush the toilet if you are through. Have you any version?

The version I heard as a child continued: "Sugar is sweet and so are you" however,I have heard "... you look like your hair has been washed in the loo" "...you look like a monkey & smell like one too" "... s*** stinks and so do you."
