My friend Isabel, always renowned for her sartorial elegance, recently celebrated a certain significant birthday.
A group of friends got together and bought her a canoe to mark the occasion.
This morning she sent me a picture of herself setting out in same and she claimed to be as “Happy as Hiawatha”
I felt a short verse a la Longfellow might therefore be in order so sent her the following few lines ;
On the lake beneath the hill top
Dressed in pink to match the water
Paddles lightly Isabella
Dipping paddles in lake water
Watching from the shore is Paulie
Wondering how he’ll ever save her
Should she slip into the water
For she has no life preserver
None was found in shop or market
Which was pink like Beb’s jacket
