Dec. 6th, Saint Somebody's Day


Every December 6th
my wife puts gold coins in one of my old shoes.
She's been doing this for years, for me and the children.
I once knew what this was all about
but now in my old age I tend to forget.
I do forget.
But if I would have saved some of these gold coins
over the years
I would now have a lot of chocolate.
It's grasshopper and ant-city.
