Day 17: The Baldpate Inn Celebrates Dr. Seuss (Theodor Seuss Geisel's birthday)


It’s a birthday today!

A birthday you say?

Yes, a birthday, silly goose!

The birthday of Dr. Seuss.

Do you think he’d like some pie?

Some pie on a mountain high?

Some pie from The Baldpate Inn?

That’s certain to be a win!


And on his pie

I’m sure he’ll try

Some ice cream à la mode

It’s so tasty

He won’t be hasty. 

He’ll never want to leave this abode.


He’s sure to discover

Lots to uncover

In the world’s largest collection of keys!

Can you imagine the possibilities he sees?


When craving a rest

He’ll sit where it’s best

Watching the hummingbirds

And conjuring up rhyming words


And perhaps tonight,

In the warm firelight,

He’ll sit beside you, and hand you his pen,

And ask you to rhyme about The Baldpate Inn!
