Pooh, It's A Day For Typos

pooh it's a day for typos piped Piglet bravely
but Pooh was busy unspelling:
that's spelling or trying to

while walking backwards
in no shoes
and thinking it's best now

to stop for Honey.
yes, on a day perfect for typos
oh so sunny

our friends tripped on in
the Hallowed Woods
not trying to be funny

while writing tragedy
(they thought they were-)
locked out of the writer's conferences

for making up new words
but happy in their traipsing
trespassing ways

their forays into the language
paws and all
so happy they could burst:

headfirst, into all the mistakes...
