LITTLE BENNY } BY LEE PAPE. | Yestiddy after suppir I wrote this| pome to Mr. Parkins and stuck it in| his overcoat pockit as follows | MR. PARKINS | Although your ony a stranger to me | now, Youll soon be my brother in law, And wen I think wat I know lbomi Gladdis I haff to smile to myself haw haw. You came to see her for many years | And at last you brawt a ring, How I miss the sound of your voice downstairs And the candy you use to bring. How often youve sat in the big frunt room | Tawking low to my sister Miss Potts, Perhaps I never once peeked through the crack in the door And maybe I peeked through it lots. You put your hat in the hall with your | gloves inside And hung up your cane on a hook, So whoever wunted to know you was here Had no ferther ixcuse $o look. | Wen the family ferst saw your little mustash. We use to laff about it with glee, But now it just seems to go with your | face | ‘Though its the same as it use to be. | | ‘Wich proves we get use to everything And wat once was a joke now is none, | O it seems a shame things must be like | that Because it spoils a lot of fun. ’ So shake hands with your coming brother in law, | Your all rite and I like you fine, And if everybody lives to tell the tale You may be the father of a neffew of mine. “CAP” STUBBS.
