Of all the friends I’ve come to know The gals and all the guys Dear Linus was the very best- Experienced and wise He offered little, face to face As he looked down at the ground Please tell me friend, of Egypts Nile! And the wonders you have found! “T—ttt” was all he had to say “T-ttt” was his reply For Linus had a stutter great And thence, this made him shy There was a time that I recall He’d met a worldly star As we gathered around him At a Droverville town bar Tell us Linus! Tell us now! Whats he really like? Did he sweep into the room? Did he ride a motor bike? Linus sat in retrospect I knew his mind was churning At last he stood (and that was good For our questions, they were burning!) "Ch Ch Ch Br" Linus began Then "Gu Gu Gu Gu IK" Continued… "Bes Bes Ju-Ju Nok" And "Ba-Ba-Bar-Bar Click!" We felt confused, betrayed, perplexed What was this eerie code? Did we need a puzzle ring to continue down the answer road? Tell us Damn you! Tell us now! We soon were in a tizzy I belive t'was Groopman hit him first ..then all of us were busy And so you see Inspector this is explains our little ruse of how Linus was found in Droverville Lake ...wearing concrete shoes... ------------------ Poetic Wheelbarrow http://sites.netscape.net/poetwheel |
