This book was reasonably readable,
And I’ve finally finalised its read,
So before I forget what’s memorable,
I’ll briefly mention it at length - agreed?
Bill Bryson will wisen you with this screed:
‘Short History of Nearly Everything’
With ‘A’ absent through syllables decreed
In sonnetary rules that I’m keeping.
It’s beducational: before sleeping,
Tuck yourself (don’t misread!) in … comfortable?
Then you’ll begin to end your day in need
Of fascinating facts he’s revealing.
Those writers I believe incredible
Pen prose that flows like blood in time of need.
