Alright class, settle down now, let’s take a look, At this word “tapes,” and what it truly took! The dictionary’s right, it's quite clear and bright, “Flexible material in a roll, a sticky sight!” Think of bandages, so soft and neat, Or packing tape, for boxes sweet. It has an adhesive surface, you see, A sticky hold for you and me! One side might stick, or both with glee, Holding things together, happily! So "tapes" means a roll that's pliable and true, With a sticky bit to help things through. Do you have any questions? Let’s discuss it slow, Now who can tell me where we might need tape to go?
