Quietly conversing with some cow?
Is that where you got your Farm-Rhymes
About those far and distent olden times?
On that distant day, oh so hot
I am certain that that you were not
Trying to discover the lost Lewis Carroll
Hiding with Jabberwock in a whisky barrel
Pondering Elizabeth Barrett Browning
With quiet romantic thoughts burning
Or perhaps peering into a future's haze
Of some of Ogden Nash's poetic maze
For you are the down to earth
Poetry's 20th century rebirth
Written im memory of James Whitcomb Riley
The revered "Hoosier Poet"
