Poor Old Punjab

Grandpa Punjab was in quite a hurry
He'd run out of cardamom and curry --
   Poor guy tried every place
   Found only nutmeg and lace -- 
Told his wife that his memory was blurry

I was just hoping that I wouldn't offend anyone with this Punjab write. It is rather stereotypical. ~ Playing with fire in Chicago, gw

G'day Gershon … appears to be a severe case of withdrawal symptoms for Punjab. Thanks Gershon - Lindsay
