Why is the letter P the poorest letter in the alphabet
Its the first letter in pity and the last in help.
What breaks as often as it appears. The dawn.
What are we always doing. Growing old.
As black as ink, as white as milk, and it hops on the ground like hailstones.
A magpie.Maggie Kennedy, Gortngowna,
