Twenty-Third Beginning: Mr. Roget's Neighborhood (poem)


If this were
Mr. Roger's Neighborhood
We would sing
"It's a beautiful day
In
The
Neigh bor hood."

But

This is
Mr. Roget's Neighborhood.
and so we
Breathe Deep. 

And

It is beautiful,
lovely,
exquisite,
fair,
comely,
charming,
bonny. . .

, , ,

   , , ,

      , , ,

         , , ,

         .
         .
         .

 . . . until the Cap with the label
Speedy Delivery
rests 

upon pale and
crum
        bl
           in
              g
                  Bones.
