MODERN MISS MUFFIT
A modern Miss Muffit sat on her tuffit
And picked up her mobile phone.
She dialled 999 the emergency line
Because her spider had not come home.
A man at the call centre
Said there’s no need to worry or fret
We’ll search for your spider
On the new mobile internet.
For he’ll have his own website
Like all spiders do.
When we locate him
We’ll send an e-mail to you.
It may take us a week
Or perhaps just one day
So why don’t you make him
Some fresh curds and whey.
And before you know it
Your spider will be home
All thanks to the internet
And the mobile phone.
