Thanks, Emily.  We will likely use that one also, but are still searching
for another.  The teacher that was asking thought perhaps it may not even
be elementary appropriate.  It may have been a poem for an audience of
adult women, specifically.  She wasn't sure though.  She was going to
research it some more tonight as she was beginning to remember more of the
phrases as she thought about it some more.
