Poetry corner

I'm not really one for poetry, especially when posting on Progress is fine, but... but I think we can once again call upon Ogden Nash for a timely comment...

The Germ
A mighty creature is the germ,
Though smaller than the pachyderm.
His customary dwelling place
Is deep within the human race.
His childish pride he often pleases
By giving people strange diseases.
Do you, my poppet, feel infirm?
You probably contain a germ.

Thank you so much for posting this. I am sure I am not the only one who follows your blog who Ogden Nash tickles.
