A puzzle, poets, just for you <br />blond hair and pretty, eyes deep blue. <br />At present stacking firewood <br />as any Northern woman should. <br />Was briefly thinking of the dwindling <br />small branches used for daily kindling, <br />and in a pinch she does have stacks <br />of Lulu pages, so relax! <br />The winds do blow on the prairie <br />it's best inside the house to be <br />and read those poems, (some do rhyme) <br />what better way to spend your time? <br />In case you haven't figured out <br />what this small puzzle is about, <br />you must be satisfied forever <br />that you are not extremely clever. <br />But not to worry, close your eyes <br />and think of cakes and fruit mince pies, <br />they serve these morsels on Thanksgiving <br />and for those special days that living <br />and aging folks do celebrate <br />it's Mary's birthday, get it Mate?<br /><br />Herbert Nehrlich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-reminder-folks/
