Polly Urethane
Girl with a peculiar name
Born into the oddest of times
She walks through the fields
Picking flowers at will
Tying them in bundles of rhyme
She then takes to the street
Corner of Humble and Meek
And gives flowers to the societally blind
Polly Urethane
The girl with a peculiar name
Looks at life and just has to laugh
Polly she knows
The silly world never slows
Here and gone in a flash
Polly she tries
To take it in stride
Though at times she doesn't understand
She's here to save all that's right
To the tune of delight
Played by a number nine piece magical band
Marching Main Street
Near the corner of Humble and Meek
Where Polly stands, flowers in hand
Polly Urethane
Girl with a peculiar name
Born into the oddest of times

It's really not that bad a place
Just a little run down is all
The paint's peeling due to factory defects
The golf course needs work on the greens
Nine flags need replacing
Both fireplaces could stand pointing
The kitchen is small
But designed for one to cook
without walking a country mile
Trees are determined to shade
everywhere except the
in ground pool, hot tub,
and koi ponds, and part
of the veggie garden.
Most of the flower plots
manage to get some sun
and the green house of course
The two car garage still has
room for two cars, barely.
The old oak floors
covered with six coats of urethane
are bearing up under the tracking in
of stable debris daily.
all in all we're managing
fairly well below the poverty level
decreed by LBJ and cohorts
Ooops it's time to ride the lawnmower.
Which shed did I leave it in?
