Around the World in the Good Ship DOGGEREL, 93

A doggerel series about the countries of the world.

Latvia.

It sits beside the Baltic Sea—
Across from Sweden, so I see.

The Nazis came—that world war.
But now they’re gone; they are no more.

And then ’twas Soviet, of course,
Until the end of that dark force.

And Latvia—republic now—
All tyranny they disavow.

The forests there are heavy, and
They have a lot of farming land.

And so their future’s looking bright—
Here's hoping that it all goes right!
