Day 355: It comes in handy for many things, my favourite line from A. A. Milne's "Happiness" poem in "When We Were Very Young":
John had
Great Big
Waterproof
Boots on;
John had a
Great Big
Waterproof
Hat;
John had a
Great Big
Waterproof
Mackintosh -
And that
(Said John)
Is
That.
This morning, it came in handy for the first light frost. I looked out at the moss on the garage roof, saw the sparkles, thought of my tomatoes, and quoted aloud, "'And that (said John) is that.'"
