come, my little booberry
stroll with me down lavendoo way
scent of honeywhisper and lollies, by golly
the water mollies are in bloom!
well i never - have you ever?
it's a chip of a pip and backwards too!
i can't believe it! how about you?

lavendoo way
I liked the poem a lot just wondered where that is.

It is hard to believe. I can't imagine what is like to watch TV ads through the eyes of a kid. I can imagine the commercials through the eyes of the people who make them. I have never seen Mad Men. I hear it is pretty good

thanks for the poem
it cheered me up for some reason.

lavendoo is sort of an inside joke. it's a fictitious additive - much valued for its color and scent. i could've used lavender - but lavendoo is more prosaic and mysterious! and it rhymes with boo.
