Somehow (I suspect my father-in-law) we wound up with a copy of the book "Selected Verse of Ogden Nash," (published 1931). It never fails to put a smile on my face. Here's a couple examples:
and
The Termite
Some primal termite knocked on wood
And tasted it, and found it good,
And that is why your Cousin May
Fell through the parlor floor today.
and
The Rabbits
Here's a verse about rabbits
That doesn't mention their habits.
