Before the below words are imputed to be of my crafting, I must say though I am hugely partisan to their genius, I did not, alas, write them. The story below is full to the brim with creativity and good humor—its word choice both spry and original, and although the plot line may at first seem indecipherable, I trust that your mind will soon snap in line and make transliteration on my part unnecessary.
Although H.L. Chace wrote Ladel Rat Rotten Hut seven years before my birth, my folks were still quoting it when I became old enough to memorize it myself. After 70 years, I can still quote lines of it by heart. I want to quote a bit of it here with a link to its online source. Hopefully, it won’t require transliteration:
Ladle Rat Rotten Hut

Funny how such unusual things stick in our minds and then suddenly “come out” Just today I was holding a treat over Tami’s head and I said: “heavy heavy hangs over your head~!” Something I may not have even thought about sense I was about six years old. Then I had to ask for her: “fine or super fine~?” Wow the mind is often an unusual thing” I do remember H. S. Chace and when in Holland often thought the Dutch talked like that~!

If there is a plot of any kind, I didn’t find it. Oh well.

Okay. I can sort of see it, but this proves what has always been true: I have absolutely NO gift for languages! Not even humorous ones.
