Dear Garrison Keillor

Dear Garrison Keillor,
Thanks for a laugh on the way to work.
Sincerely,
Mandie

I usually am able to catch the Writer's Almanac on the way to work in the mornings. On August 4, 2011, there was read by Garrison Keillor this poem--Be Glad Your Nose is on Your Face by Jack Prelutsky.

Tennessee Summer

Wet muggy heat rests in the air
Bright summer sun illuminates my hair
Grass in the field tickles my feet
I, for the mosquitoes, am something to eat
A bird teases a cat just a few feet away
Folks are laughing on such a hot day
Tasty pickles, a little bit tart
Tennessee summer will capture your heart
