No Chemistry Set

What I wanted for my tenth birthday
Was a chemistry set.
The one thing, I knew,
I wasn't likely to get.
My father said we couldn't afford it,
Too expensive.
But I think he was still a little apprehensive
And I had a strong feeling
It was more about that concoction I made
And those green spots on the ceiling.

Having taught Chemistry, I can't help but like this 'write!'

Applause!
