Trigger Warning
Where did the “b” in the word “crumb” come from?
(“B” in the word “numb” is equally dumb.)
Why doesn’t “rhino” begin with “r-i”?
Starting the word “herb” with “h,” I decry.
When you say “solemn,” the last sound is “em”;
adding an “n” at the end, I condemn.
“Psycho,” “pneumonia,” and “psalm” don’t need “p”;
“Scientist” certainly doesn’t need “c.”
Unspoken letters inserted pell-mell
add to the turmoil of learning to spell.
