The Guppy by Ogden Nash | ||
Whales have calves, Cats have kittens, Bears have cubs, Bats have bittens, Swans have cygnets, Seals have puppies, But guppies just have little guppies. |

Poetry Wednesday--Ogden Nash
I've loved Ogden Nash's poetry since I was a child. His poems are thought provoking yet whimsical. Enjoy this one about the guppy.

Dymphna's favorite quotes
"Slavery ended in medieval Europe only because the church extended its sacraments to all slaves and then managed to impose a ban on the enslavement of Christians (and of Jews). Within the context of medieval Europe, that prohibition was effectively a rule of universal abolition. "— Rodney Stark

I think they have guplets. At least in my head they do, LOL.
Guplets! That's cute!
One of my favorite Nash poems, though it wasn't until I was an adult that I really understood it is:
Candy is dandy but
Liquor is quicker.
I love his little poems.
Isn't he great?!
