She Dropped Gladys On Tuesday

Your cousin Louise is weird the relatives told me. She names things.
Like what things?
She named her iron.
What is its name?
Her name is Gladys.
She said she dropped Gladys on Tuesday and burned her rug.
I thought it was hilarious!
I could not wait to meet her.

I don't name my plants, but I do talk to them, and I tell them how much I love them. Sometimes I call my car "Lizzie," I don't know why. My niece has named every one of her twenty chickens! They come when she calls them.

Someone was telling me a story this week about a woman who names everything in her house - her phone, her dishes, her bubble making machine, her iron, her tables, her chairs. What? I know there is another poem or two I can get out of this.

One of my frat brothers talked to Ralph a lot. He was the first that I knew of who had a personal relationship with a commode…
