Notes About The Poem

                

The Letter Join In the Conversation

Mary had received a letter.
She read it aloud to her friend Netta.
It was to invite her to go with Ben,
As done last year to the town fair again.

Netta said “aren’t you going with Joe?”
Mary replied ”He did ask me to go.
Why don’t the four of us go together?”
Oh I so hope its lovely weather.

“Which boy would you be with?” Netta enquires. 
Mary laughed “Whatever transpires”
She smiled.”Ben and I did have fun last year
He paid for everything such a dear,

We had hot dogs and went on every ride, 
It would be really hard for me to decide.
I like Joe, he’s easy to get to know.
So is it agreed, four of us will go?

Fine, lets answer Ben’s letter straight away.
Now what shall we say?
Thank you Ben, how sweet of you.
Netta is coming too”
