The tale of the Rubik's Cube

 There once was a cube called Rubik's

It's meant to be solved in a moment.

There are two kids that each got one

They tried to match sides just for fun. 



They heard the tale of an Uncle

Who had rapid fast hands, yes he did

He could solve that crazy cube

He was one super fast dude!


A trip to a wedding took place

Of course Mr. Rubik's came along

Why? Because Uncle Jeff would there

And all those boys could do was stare.



He took that cube in his hands

Announced, "Get that timer ready"

 And It was with great resolve

That splendid cube he did solve.


Now, several years later

One boy in particular kept trying

To reach the same level as his Uncle

And solve that cube which is a struggle



The day has arrived and the cube has been solved

Not once or twice - but now over and over!

But have no fear, that first cube solved by Jeff

Now has a special pace on the shelf. 



The words have been uttered

Words of clear adoration

"Don't touch that cube over there!"

It was solved by my Uncle with care! 



(I am so not a poet - but this was fun!)
