Of program managers and leporidae

Of Program Managers and Leporidae*

 

It has recently been suggested,

(and although this may sound funny),

our esteemed leader has been likened to…

an iconic little bunny.

 

So listen now, pay close attention.

Give your dozing neighbor a nudge.

How we came to this conclusion, I will explain.

And then you can be the judge.

 

Going here, going there, going everywhere…

she makes the most of every minute.

She presides over the lot of us,

each branch and all that’s in it.

 

A thousand emails beg her response.

Hundreds of decisions to decide,

A dozen plus branches to oversee…

From the rainy West to the arid East side.

 

All this and more she does every day.

I can’t even imagine the load.

I’m sure if we tried to fill her shoes,

Our poor heads would surely explode.

 

What force within drives her we may never know.

She keeps going through dark days and sunny.

So in awe and with gratitude…we salute you Laura…

Our own Energizer Bunny!

    My curiosity got the better of me when a few minutes ago I received an email from WALIBSDL [[email protected]] listing a number of blogs.

    As most of you know I was the branch manager at Western State Hospital until September,2002.

    Congratulations with this very impressive looking blog and the great messages that ILS staff have left. Yes, I really like Lyla’s poem. I am very impressed. As with the entire library community state wide, ILS is making giant steps into technology as well.

    Still greatly interested in ILS and my best wishes to all of ILS staff during these difficult economic times,

    Yes, I love when Lyla comes up with a poem for an occassion, she came up with this one in one night especially for our esteemed manager Laura Sherbo.

    Neal thanks for the compliments about the blog, yes we are moving along nicely with technology and I am having fun doing it as well. I am glad you like it and hope you come back to read the future posts that will be coming along.

  3. Nice to share with all out there,
    about Laura’s reputation we dare!
