Even the finest craftsman can have an off day

as his customer looked somewhat bemused

at the shards of coloured glass

lying on the museum floor

scattered shards of red, blue and green

had fallen to the ground

to repair the glass scenery

would cost more than a pound

but examining the fixative

made assisting builders smile

he’d used peanut butter instead of putty or lead

so the birds would be round for a while
