Cucumber Pie

Are cucumbers cool
As a general rule?
How fresh is a daisy?
Are loons always crazy?

How snug is a bug
When he’s not in a rug?
How gentle are lambs?
How happy are clams?

How clever’s a fox
That’s as dumb as an ox?
How fit is a fiddle?
As clean as a whistle?

Are doornails more dead
Than a dodo bird’s head?
Is the deafness of posts
More than four hundred roasts?

Such puzzles befuddle and much mystify
Till suddenly you see they’re as easy as pie!
