u & i

u and i
are mere vowels
that's true
but, mind you,
how true
would true be
without u to glue
the t, r and e?

surely you'd object
having to neglect
the i in mind?

i would find it
rather odd
without that
skinny sod
in my mind.

after all,
u r on my m n d
doesn't make sense
without i to support
the other three.

fine, you say
but what about
other vowels?

well,
a is o.k.
o is so-so
and e is the star of
the vowel ensemble,
but without
u and i
you can't spell
i luv u
and that is why
u and i
are the most
befitting letters
in the alphabetic universe.
