 April Is National Poetry Month

The poem was first published in The Carmel Pine Cone Newspaper on April 4, 1941.


If-ing


If I had some small change

I'd buy me a mule,

Get on that mule and

Ride like a fool.



If I had some greenbacks

I'd buy me a packard,

Fill it up with gas and

Drive that baby backward.



If I had a million

I'd get me a plane

And everybody in America'd

Think I was insane.



But I ain't got a million,

Fact is, ain't got a dime--

So just by if-ing

I have a good time!
