"Hurk" by Shel Silverstein



I'd rather play tennis than go to the dentist. I'd rather play soccer than go to the doctor. I'd rather play Hurk than go to work. Hurk? Hurk? What's Hurk? I don't know, but it must be better than work. 



Hi, I’m Grace, and this is the Peter Piper Picked a Peck of Pickled Poems Podcast. It’s a poetry podcast by a kid, for kids. Are you ready for today’s Pickled Poem?



Email pickledpoemspodcast@gmail.com and let me know what you thought about today's episode. I’d love to hear YOUR favorite poem, too, so make sure to include that in the email and it might show up in a future episode. Make sure your parents have subscribed to this podcast, and ask them to leave a rating and review so more kids and families can enjoy pickled poems. 



Oh, and I should mention that this podcast is sponsored by the <a href="https://www.humilityanddoxology.com/homeschool-conversations/" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">⁠⁠⁠Homeschool Conversations with Humility and Doxology podcast⁠⁠⁠</a>, which is hosted by my Mom. So if you have a parent listening, they should probably check that one out, too. 



Now go pick a peck of pickled poems! I’ll see you next week!
