Little owlet in the glen
I'm ashamed of you;
You are ungrammatical
In speaking as you do,
You should say, "To whom! To whom!"
Not, "To who! To who!"
Your small friend, Miss Katy-did,
May be green, 't is true,
But you never hear her say
"Kay do! She do!"
Sara Duane is a freelance writer in the Twin Cities area of the great state of Minnesota.
A delightful little whimsical poem.

Who The Heck Are You?
I’ve just watched Frasier and it was the episode where he quotes this poem, I’ve never heard it before and it’s now my favourite poem! And owls are by far my favourite animal!
