Thanks Dr. Seuss!

Thanks Dr. Seuss!
Quizmo LaGrande

In my many long years, in my own simple time,
I’ve always found ways to make the words rhyme.
Blame it on Mother and dear Dr. Seuss
Who’s writings she read me since very small youth.

A spark and a fire she tried to ignite
With never me knowing, much to her delight,
That speaking in rhyme is not easy to do
Unless you are silly and like to ensue

A flavor of talking that’s been quite the rage
Of youngsters and oldsters—turned many a page
Of dear Dr. Seuss, the master of fun,
And wisdom, and writing in poetry’s tongue!
