Harry and Hilda
Harry and Hilda Herald in Halloween
haphazard handsome Halloween Harry
has hurried helpless hapless Hilda of Herrington.
ghosts, ghouls and gruesome ghoulish ghouls gather,
greasing Hilda’s handy hardy robust ready rolling pin.
wizards, witches, werewolves and wild wooly wolverines
want wacky wonders warmed and wise.
sassy suave scintillating superheroes hire Harry and Hilda
to harmoniously Halloween harmonize.

legacy of Hilda
Hilda is the opposite of shy; she is not hiding in any way.
She flaunts her stuff without any self-consciousness.
She knows she looks dandy and prefers skimpy clothes.
Other farmers' wives adore her, they do not care.
She can walk down the train track with barely a stitch on.
No one makes fun of her, because it is Hilda

Hilda Milks Cy
Every animal in the lot came by for a hi
They wanted to see Hilda milk her baby Cy
Cy was okay with it, not a bit tit shy
And of course, the kitty was sitting by.
Hello! Said Hilda, welcome one and all.
She got a stool as she sat down in the stall.
The chickens began clucking, the cow

Barney Hilda and Clyde
Meet the happy couple
That's Hilda all in white
Barney's there beside her
Loves her with all his might
They're an interracial couple
No problem nowadays
Frowned on not too long ago
But today it's a-okay
Met at the local horse saloon
Frequented by the equine crowd
She was a pretty show horse
He was boisterous and loud
Pretty soon, she tamed him
Settled him down just

Our men, frail from fruit, walk among hyacinth shadows
They crawl across marblewalk courtyards-
Mist in quivering sunlight

Appreciating Hilda
Rubenesque Hilda loved her ample rotund girth
As did her enamored husband, Charlie McMirth
She was corpulently rounded, and forever fine.
Charlie often said “I am grateful that Hilda is mine.”

Penning Hilda of the Fifties
Duane Bryers drew up the Hilda cartoons in the fifties
This is one, and she is truly one of the nifties.
You can tell she is a full size woman, comfortable in her skin.
She is an assertive gal in each cartoon she is in.
I have seen so many, and they are each rather fine.
Hilda is something, and

Sister Hilda Marie of Ind
She was the sparkle at the heart of it
The love we all shared
I don’t remember a day that passed by,
without her friendly smile or wink of her eye.
We lost Hildie in the spring of last year
And now we find, we are losing the very thing she held so dear
Our beloved IND, The Institue of
