Please Bury Me in the Library:
Please bury me in the library
In the clean, well-lighted stacks
Of Novels, History, Poetry,
Right next to the Paperbacks,
Where the Kids’ Books dance
With True Romance
And the Dictionary dozes.
Please bury me in the library
With a dozen long-stemmed proses.
Way back by a rack of Magazines,
I won’t be sad too often,
If they bury me in the library
With Bookworms in my coffin.
A Classic
A children’s book is a classic
If at six, excitedly
You read it to another kid
Who just turned sixty-three.
Flea-ting Fame
Did you ever hear of the tiny book
By the famous Otto the Flea,
A fly-by-night,
Who dared to write
His Ottobiography?
