A is for A: An Illuminated Alphabet in Verse: Letters U & T

        T is for T:








     
     Ask'd "True or false: The Skaters' Waltz
     was done by one Waldteufel...?" 
     I'd answer 'T.' ('F,' 'N,' you see,
     or 'B' leave me annoyful.)


     U is for U:
 












     Burmese PM (une homme, non femme),
     their very first: U Nu.
     U Thant...? Not so; nor Goryeo.*
    (A playwright, too: who knew...?)**

          *A Korean dynasty from 918 to 1392 with
           no significant relation to Burma now known 
           as Myanmar.
           **U Nu wrote several plays, among them 
           The Sound of the People Victorious.
