Title: The Floor
Author: Oliver Herford [ More Titles by Herford]
Here's to the floor, Our best friend of all, Who sticks to us close In the time of our fall. When benches are fickle And tables betray And rugs are revolving, He meets us half-way. Our stay and support, When we can't stand alone, With the floor for a backer, We'll never be thrown. Here's to our friend, In life's every stage! Dry nurse of infancy, Wet nurse of age! _A health_ to our floor! Supporter and stay; Though he often be full, May he never give way!
[The end] Oliver Herford's poem: Floor ________________________________________________
