Three Cheers for Abutments

     Supporting bridges over ravines
       or gap-toothed kings and queens 

     abutments may be improperly named
       BUT they’re effective all the same

Ohhhhh, you quack me up! I think this is one of my favorite Gershon-ism's - just love it. Should you read my latest posting, just comment on poem, not content - wrote it a long time ago (I didn't want you to be frightened.) I'm off to see if you can make me laugh more ... CayCay (There's a limerick out there somewhere that needs the word abutment.)
