What does the Magic 8 Ball know?

I'd forgotten about that Magic 8 Ball. What fun we had, waiting to see what it would say-& like your poem, the answers were "Without a doubt", good!

ReplyDeleteWell, when you put it that way, that is one indecisive Magic 8 Ball! What were we thinking to pin all our hopes and dreams on such an unreliable advice giver? Thanks for the memories of a toy without which no childhood would be complete. :)
ReplyDeleteThis is very clever. Love it.
