My Very Own Tree Stump

He really was as dumb as a tree stump Carried all his weight in his big old rump But I fell for his line And made him all mine 'Cause he was as sweet as dear Forest Gump

Hmmm, I'm wondering who inspired this poem, dear LNC. Anyone I know? It's really very clever and should do well in the contest! Love, Carolyn
