Gershon Wolf Poet Light Verse

I Advise a Rather Clueless Lady

A pink-'n-yellow ladybug flew up to me
  Said, 'I'm so pretty, can't you see
Why are the gentleman-bugs so put-off-y
  Perhaps I'm simply too carefree'

'O no, ma'am, that's just not so
  You're the best catch in all of Toronto
It's just that gents here don't know from pink-'n-yellow
  Wear a maple-leaf coat to catch a Canadian fellow'

Perhaps the gents are just color blind, not knowing red from orange:-) Alexis Gershon Wolf February 17, 2021 at 5:51 PM Perhaps those gents are, indeed, color-blind. Hope they don't drive on roads with stoplights! lol. Thanks, Alexis.
