Who played with a Loaded Gun, and, on missing his Sister was reprimanded by his Father.
Young Algernon, the Doctor's Son,
Was playing with a Loaded Gun.
He pointed it towards his Sister,
Aimed very carefully, but
Missed her!
His Father, who was standing near,
The Loud Explosion chanced to Hear,
And reprimanded Algernon
For playing with a Loaded Gun.

Outstanding
Hilaire Belloc such a great poet his poems will live forever, Belloc had all of the human feelings in his poems, this poem Algernon is a typical Belloc very clever. -
I really like this one. Very poetic, the rhyming was nicely done and I simply adore the name Algernon. Won't name any of my kids Algernon but I still like it.
