The Bungalows of Mortimer

Riding through through the wilds of Brooklyn
you discover many things:
animals of inaccurate sizes
and modern castles for ridiculous kings.
You can find tiny homes
and ships unpowered by the air.
In all of Brooklyn you will view
everything if you but dare.

Just keep looking far and near
and through the borough’s wandered land
you’ll discover barely clear
the best things you could turn up and
what’s obvious will prove most true:
Long Island’s best things’s don’t recur.
You’ll not be the first to view
the bungalows of Mortimer!

Others, surely, have been by.
When you see it, it’s the best.
So take a key, unlock and try.
Take a pillow. Have a rest.
They are cool and by the beach.
Do not tarry when it storms
– or keep cover well in reach
so you’re safe when thunder forms.

Best be protected in Brooklyn wilds
when you’re running all around,
acting like a Brooklyn child
making all those Brooklyn sounds.
Enjoy the house as if it’s new!
Whether you’re them, he, or her,
you’ll not be the last to view
the bungalows of Mortimer!
