[To accompany a Mother Goose book for a new baby]
June 6, 2001
Dear Baby,.
Mom and Dad may have books to peruse,
That are abstract, arcane and abstruse.
But don't dance to that piper,
Just bet your last diaper,
That there's nothing to top Mother Goose!
Welcome, Enjoy the World!
Love,
Joan

Dear Alice
April Showers bring May flowers,
But soggy tresses just bring glowers,
The rain falls in the East and West,
Wherever you might come to rest,
So when you travel near or far,
I hope you travel like a star,
With never splotch or blotch or stain,
From those intrusive drops of rain!
And when you trek in foreign lands,
Or traipse on Florida's singing sands,
These stars will keep your spirits high--
And also keep you nice and dry!
Have a Sunny Day!
Love, Joanie
