Patron Whispering

I am not a shushing librarian, but my colleague the other day gave me a nice compliment: she called me "The Patron Whisperer", as in I can calm the frothing, angry library client, with soothing tones and patient understanding. It's too funny.

Sh-sh-sh little patron, it's okay.
Let's make that bad Internet connection go away.
Close your eyes and dream of pies,
And ice cream sundaes, burgers, and fries.

Hey, gimme a break. She never said "Poet Laureate".

That is perhaps the only kind comment that can be made about such a truly bad poem.
