Just little verse now, and then / will
close:
The sky is ever bluest.
And friendship is the truest,
And enemies the fewest-
In Florida.
Sunshine is the brightest:
Merry hearts are the lightcst.
And Moonbeams whitest-
In Florida.
Blue lakes are the clearest:
Home hearts are the dearest
And Heaven is the nearest
In Florida.
Grass widows are the tamest;
Bachelors the lamest
And tarpons the samest--
In Florida ~
Maidens are the sweetest;
Sailboats are the fleetest.
And bungalows the neatcst-
In Florida.
Lovers are the boldest:
Oranges are the coolest.
And people live the oldest
In Florida.
