Sense Sonnet - Tickler

 Petty Argument

The four elements, earth and air,

And fire and water talked about

The gift that each of them would share

For important birthday, no doubt.

Earth said it would make a clay bust.

Air's gift would be rainbow balloon.

Fire felt a lightning bolt a must.

Water'd sing a sea chanty tune.

What started as a friendly chat

Turned into elementary rift,

Ending up in a vicious spat

As to who's giving the best gift.

And what none of the four could say,

When is Mother Nature's birthday?
