Note to a Lady By R. F. Hasna SOME months ago, my lady fair, I raved about your raven hair, And swore that naught beneath yey skies | Could match the wonder of your eyes. Odes, madrigals, and sonnets too, I wrote and rashly sent to you And now, although I’m still your slave, I would a favor humbly crave: If you have kept my works of art, The product of my mind and heart, Please ship them back at my expense, And please, my dear, don’t take offense But—er—oh, well, the facts are these: I'd like to try them on Louise Describing It “How does yo’ like muh—kee- vocal singin’, Brudder Tarr? “Yo' voice am supinely malodorc Sistah Waddles; supinely malodorous.” hee- he A Period Easily Remembered Louise—How long have you been haunting offices?
