Notes About The Poem

First born of eight,Henry Heinz by name
Brought the common bean to worldwide fame-
In business,he kept his faith alive
Renown for the brand,fifty-seven
Eternal remembrance,now,in heaven

He was certainly no 'Has Bean'Brian was he? Keep 'em coming. I still think PS is missing your contests though - especially the new poets. Any thoughts on a Mr Strand Monthly contest?? :) Cheers - Gary
