You don’t have to be Walter Mitty
To come up with a pretty little ditty.
You don’t need the approval of a committee
To write down verse very witty.
Just use imagination itty-bitty,
And you will compose something nifty.
You don’t need to employ outlaw banditti.
You don’t need to call a subcommittee.
You don’t need anyone else’s pity.
Just imitate the antics of your little kitty,
And throw the dice in dear old New York City —
That’s the nitty-gritty.
So hippity hoppity too
And bippity boppity boo.
Serendipity truly loves you.
