Contingency

Do not encourage Supergreen to sing;
to say she has a voice would be a lie.
Let her direct or do some other thing.

We hold a celebration in the spring;
a musical production, Summer Sky.
Do not encourage Supergreen to sing.

In vernal voices melodies do ring;
yet hers compels our hound dog Blue to cry.
Let her direct or do some other thing.

Out through her nose the notes careen and ping;
it is the Sound of Music gone awry.
Do not encourage Supergreen to sing.

As such, off-notes creates bone marrow sting;
the whole of skeleton is not so spry.
Let her direct or do some other thing.

To bar bad voice, direct approach is king;
but as a bribe, we can use apple pie.
Do not encourage Supergreen to sing;
let her direct or do some other thing.
