MR.NOBODY

SYNOPSISThe poem is the story of a funny little man by the name of Mr. Nobody who is up to a lot of mischief that he does so quietly in everybodys house.We have never seen his face but if things go wrong, it will definitely be the work of Mr.Nobody.He is the one who breaks the plates, tears our books, and leaves the door ajar

He also pulls out the buttons from our shirts and scatters our pins all over the place.Our doors squeak because Mr. Nobody has not oiled it. He is the culprit who puts damp wood upon the fire so that the kettle cannot boil.He likes to soil the carpets with his muddy feet.He uses things but fails to return them to their proper places so it is not strange that the papers always are mislaid.

Mr. Nobody is very careless.He leaves his finger marks on the door and leaves the blinds open; as a result the curtains will fade. The things that we see lying around like the split ink and the boots are the work of Mr. Nobody.
