Lady Liberty

The Statue of Liberty swam away. She's headed back to France today. The ladies crown got lost in the harbor. She cut off her hair at a near by barber. Some one out west claims they spotted her torch. Now thousands of forests are totally scorched. I heard she took some classic Monets and brought along assorted souffles. I think she intended to pack a baquette but was fearful it might just get wet. Knowing that France was so far away she brought along her personal bidet. Now when immigrants arrive from across the sea, there's just an empty platform where lady liberty used to be.
