    I wonder if this couplet ever grew up into a poem?

    Talcum - a lovely finishing touch to a job that every
    Mother likes to see completed - well I always did.
    I found this strange written by a man - but perhaps he was a hands-on Dad.

    Well I thought that 'walcum' would have been a real word but I looked it up and it seems to be just a play on words of 'welcome', which is okay but it's always fun to find the words used are actual words.

    But though this is really short, it's so true. A nice piece that Nash has written here.
