ONE SOG w/PIP TO ANOTHER

(Silly old grandmother with pictures in purse)

You've pulled them out--the latest snaps--
And I have looked and did agree
That they are darling little chaps--
Your pride and joy of one and three.

Now, not so fast, my dear old friend--
I'm sure you will be glad to wait
To see the gems my children send--
Here, take a look at something great!

Ah, yes, you sigh; your smile is wan.
(I can't believe that I'm a bore!)
Oh, really, must you hurry on?
But here, wait up! Here's just one more!
