Ms. Purple (For My Niece, Johnette Loefgren)
Now ain't I just the cutest purple spider
You have ever seen
And don't you just LLOOOVEEE
My web of iridescent green
I made it today for a special group
You, and your friends from PoetrySoup
So, bring the gang on over to the Poetry Cafe
Just come as you are,you all know the way
There's never a cover charge
And the dance band is free
Of course, I wouldn't mind
If you brought a lil treat for me
A tasty fly to nibble on
Would suit me just fine
But remember, I have to be in bed
A little after nine
With twenty three little ones
To care for all alone
By nine I'm really tired
And weary to the bone
But, you and the gang
Are welcome to stay
And party hearty
'Til the break of day
Just lock the doors on your way out
And leave a tip for the band
It was nice to see you all
So come back as soon as you can
