A POEM, A FLOOD AND A CYCLOMON FLOWER

 

MR BILL ADAMS wields his Electric Snow Blower
like Charleton Heston in BEN HUR

Could be the rocket ship headed for Mars
Can we wait that long?

Stay healthy! Eat your salads that come in tamper-proof
containers, a variety of dressings ready for you

Grey Poupon Moutarde
Real Hellmann's mayonnaise, spell out that long word
we have miles to go
clutch your coffee to your belt
tea makes us drowsy

We all help each other out
on Cowbell Road, my sister Ellen
is amazed - and you don't even
pay them?

Certainly not, I harrumph. The
Almighty sees all and so does that
green snowplough that rides the roads
like Orence in Laurence of Arabia.
GO GO GO

- Ruth Z Deming

JUST FINISHED WATCHING A THREE HOUR FILM CALLED 'THE FLOOD.'

Very enjoyable. London was on the verge of being swallowed up by a mighty burst of water but it never happened.

The cast was great.... a bunch of old gents brought out from whatever they were doing.


Thank you Ellen for the lovely cycloman you bought me at WEIS MARKET in Huntingdon Valley.
