Mes amies: Everyone has seemed so very serious about poetry that I thought I might remind you that children (and some of us who are ex-children--very, very ex) also really find appeal in the humor of cows jumping over moons (or cows mooning forks???) and all other silly items that make Jack Prelutsky so popular and Myra Cohn Pound so lugubrious.
So, therefore, and etc., etc., here followeth some nonsense (Thank you, Mr. Lear, Dr. of Mathematics and Logic Carroll. and many, many others). REALLY SERIOUS FOLK SHOULD STOP READING IMMEDIATELY.
