Boo-Tiful Save

Hans tried this save as a tike -
Episodic finger in the Holland-days dike.
Not afraid to swim.
See-through stranger didn’t spook him.

Friendly Casper scared the boo out of all, 
Spared the scaredy-cats with a window y’all.
They see through the glass magnified fishes.
The aquarium, a dutch treat for all their wishes.

These two Clerihew are witty and pleasant to read, Kim. I remember reading about the Dutch boy who saved his country by putting his finger in a leaking dyke (I was about 8 then). ~ Regards // paul
