What people freely gave into my hat,
never reached my piggybank on the „high mat“.
[German original:
Was die Leute mir in den Hut gaben,
bewirkte bei mir auch kein Guthaben.]
Highly praiseworthy poetry community of all the English Speaking World,
does one of you only love this my spoonerism distich of German origin?
I, indeed, will be most appreciative if he/she would magnanimously burnish my weak English equivalent...
Yours
