Buttering up

For years now I have scratched my head
Trying to understand just how my bread
(Nicely toasted brown)
Fell buttered side down
Now I know – I went wrong with the spread!

    You may have scratched your head,
    & found an answer to the riddle of the bread
    But what about Murphy's law,
    for it now appears to have a flaw!

  2. Said Gowri to Murphy, "in the wake,
    Of this finding your law is at stake."
    Murphy smiled - "Never!
    My laws are for ever,
    Though I may shift from bread now to cake!"
