DAILY POEM
JUST A SUGGESTION


A novel idea has surely b
missed by the wall paper men of
land. And, just as bunch, let
give them the gist of the thing
that they'll understand.
A youngster, you know, when
crawling around and hugging
floor like leech, creeps hit
and yon with its knees on
ground, trying to get things pla,
just out of reach.
The paddles get soiled as Il
wipe up the floor and the kid
creeps under the table. It reac
for something and then someth
more; for spillings of jam, wi
it's able.
And then to the wall little ere
er will crawl just to sit there Z
merrily coo. The innocent be
is happily seeing what harm t
paddles will do.
Thus imprints are made and
wall paper men, if they'll copy
tiny tot touch, can make a des
lof the hand marks and then
those marks won't be noticed
much.
