Transcript:
Aunt Fritzi typing: Hey, diddle DIDDLE-- The kittle with the FIDDLE--played blue grass from dusk 'til MANANA-- He played with such HEART-- But could not make the CHARTS-- 'Til his "bluegrass" became "AMERICANA"-- Now he's a BIG "PUSS IN BOOTS"-- Playing "MUSIC CITY ROOTS"-- He's got so many gigs, it ain't FUNNY--- If you follow your bliss and GO-- Your destiny might finally SHOW-- And that song in your heart---- Might be MONEY.

The rhymes are so-so (more assonance than rhyme) but the meter is terrible.

The quality of your poetry matters not a bit if you look that good!

If I recall correctly, Fritzi gave up a promising Hollywood career to take care of Nancy.

Guy, I hope DreamWorks Animation doesn’t sue you for using the Puss in Boots character likeness and name! Just kidding.

I hope Puss N Boots is out on DVD soon. I remember Nancy since I was real small too. I had a paperback Nancy comic book even. Nancy rocks!

Guy – any relation to Steven (mandolin), by chance? Or Texans Troy & Sharon? Just curious, since you reference bluegrass. Love your work! Thanks!

Guy, I get your point; however, Nancy belongs to everyone. You provide the fodder for our senses. Try 1945, in a white swing on a MS farm, a 10-year-old mesmerized by the strong red, yellow, black, and green colors…a world created by whoever had the copyright on Nancy then. I never dreamed that we would still have her—thanks to you— in 2011. All I’m asking for is a bit of balance here. One day Aunt Fritz and her adolescent songs; the next day Nancy and/or Sluggo for us addicts…Have a heart. You are GREATLY appreciated.

So…an opinion…a request…is a negative comment? Wow! What wits you are. Maybe I AM in the wrong place. Too vintage, I guess…like Nancy.
