Cartoon Man
An oval face, sturdy and wise,
With wrinkles pointing at the sky.
Long ears holding him down
And hanging to his partial frown.
On his frame is slung a coat--
Of elk, or deer, or maybe goat--
While a belt of brown and reds,
Warn entirely to shreds,
Holds up the pants
That always dance
Around his ankles--spindly but strong.
The man of stories oh so long,
Husband, father, brother, too,
Really needs to tie his shoes.
