Publisher's Synopsis
Excellent Rhymes for Young and Old. The Jumble Book of Rhymes by Frank R Heine - Illustrations by G. C. Cobb. Lotus Eating In the land of In-a-minute, the land of Lots-of-time, The land of What's-the-hurry? Manna-land sublime; The land of Sleep-a-whole-lot, -to me it ofttimes seems I sure should like to live there, for I'd have time for Dreams. (Here the Jumbler becomes personal): Now I'd not waste a minute if I lived in that clime, But say good-bye to worry, and dream-well all the time. And what, dear, do you reckon my fancy'd bring to view? The answer is so easy: Sweetheart, I'd dream of You. Handle With Care The tangible always is frangible. (Proven long since, I take it). By chance or by art you've taken hold of my heart- But please, Little Girl, don't break it! A Bare Story Nobody loves a man that's bald, I've often heard it said; But why does Love, then, laugh at locks?- It makes me scratch my head. A Truth A simple truth I give to you To always recollect; There is one thing-and that's Friendship- Will not thrive on neglect.
