He was a poet who wrote clever verses,
And folks said he had a fine poetical taste;
But his father, a practical farmer, accused him
Of letting the strength of his arm go to waste.
He called on his sweetheart each Saturday evening,
As pretty a maiden as ever man faced,
And there he confirmed the old man's accusation
By letting the strength of his arm go to waist.

How unexpectedly suggestive lol! Its always great to see the glimpses into the personalities of the people who write or even do great things. We tend to glorify and de-humanize them, so its wonderful to re-connect to the human aspect and see a sense of humor.
