Kinlaw Library


 Where Jonquils Were

by John Clare Stokes


they built a grand library

where the old lady

once beat the rugs

stubbornly in her back yard

while they waited

for the old lady

to retire

to reside beneath

the jonquils

to build

the grand library

named after Dennis Kinlaw 

great in many ways

but who can recall

the old two story house

and the stubborn lady 

who beat her rugs

beside her jonquils who

made way for the

grand library?
