Story 190

A Thinking Device

Did you know that smoking is an unhealthy vice,

And that smoking in public is not very nice?

Did you know that things done fast are done in a trice?

Did you know that a louse and a louse make two lice?

Did you know that thrice is just once more than twice?

Did you know that one die plus another die make a pair of dice?

Did you know that Ginger & Rosemary are sisters & spice?

And did you know that hot dogs can sell at a "beefed-up" price?

Story 191

The Young Bride

To bide her time a young bride may do things alone outside. She may

take a car ride to the seaside, where she may stroll with a leisurely
stride, wade in the ocean tide, and simply watch seagulls glide by.

But when she becomes a mother, baby shall be

by her side, and she shall be his trusting guide.

Now and then she may take him on a pony ride,

or perhaps down a water slide. And almost

always, she'll beam with overflowing pride.
