We'd love to know.""I'm sorry, but I can't tell you," she would say,"but I wish you all a pleasant day.""Please tell us," they would cry,but she would smile and say goodbye.Her beauty secrets she'd never tell,for she'd always be the city's belle ...This rhyming cautionary tale looks at the pitfalls of vanity and pride. It is approximately 650 words.
