Pardon My French
PARDON MY FRENCHDo I parlez-vous Français?Well, I really couldn't say.I know that checkers are passé,And what a fencer says: "Touché!"Merci gives someone my thanks.Money used to be called francs.(Now they've euros at their banks).Beyond these words, my mind's a blank.No, wait! A lot is said "beaucoup,"And ballerinas wear tutus.When you're mad, shout, "Sacrebleu!"That's enough of French -- "Mon Dieu!"© Mary Lee Hahn, 2012
