Holiday Card to Bruce Sagan of the Hyde Park Herald
The Herald was silly and jerky, What was news or opinion was murky, It went way 'round the bend When the Co-op did end, That Herald was one Christmas turkey.
Here's looking at you, kid!
The Herald was silly and jerky,
ReplyDeleteWhat was news or opinion was murky,
It went way 'round the bend
When the Co-op did end,
That Herald was one Christmas turkey.
Or, in haiku:
ReplyDeleteIce crystals on stoop
Sun breaks fierce and fiery
Herald is sodden
Sincere folks differ
ReplyDeleteNo need to mock and jeer
Can't we get along?
News gods surely weep
ReplyDeleteHPH a new color
Yellow in disgrace
Sincere folks differ
ReplyDeleteMany voted but some won't hear
Can't they move along?
Win with grace, be glad
ReplyDeleteThose who lose may rail, regret
Victors can be kind
