Hi ladies,
I have a friend who is desperately trying to locate a poem that was used at HER baby shower, so she can use it at her SIL's shower. She had a copy of it, but her Mother borrowed it and changed all the wording to use for her church group.
The poem has numbers and will say something like...
1. Pass this to the lady with the pink top, .....
2. Pass to someone with largest purse, blah, blah....
Each numbered line rhymes, but I don't know what it says.
Does ANYONE know what poem I am talking about? I'm not sure the poem is specifically for a BABY SHOWER, but my friend said it did mention something about babies or being a Mother or something.
I think it is kind of a "get-to-know-you" type of activity.
Thanks in advance for the help! :)

Im not a member, but this is the one i have... I think this is the ONLY thing i havent done at a shower yet...trust me i have given plenty!
another that i live to do is i ask everyone to bring a purse.. i have a list of things (paperclip, stamp, chapstick, gum, outdated coupon) it is a hoot. you would be SHOCKED at the things us women have in our purses! hehe
1. The word is out, quick send a cable. This poem goes to the lady across the table.
2. If someone wears a dress or blouse of blue, she must take this note from you. But if blue cannot be
seen, surely pink is just as keen.
3. Take this note and read the verse. Pass it to the gal who carries the largest purse. If it is you,
keep the note. If not, then pass to the largest tote.
4. We’re getting trickier, and here’s a humdinger. Pass this note to the gal with the most rings on her
fingers.
5. You’re doing great! What a success! Pass this note to the girl with the most buttons on her dress.
6. Alas, this note is not for you, but now it passes to the lady who, with rage, admits to being the
oldest age!
7. Don’t despair, here’s the clue…this must be handed to the lady with the largest shoe.
8. (Mom’s name) is getting anxious…and (he or she) is getting nervous. Pass this to the lady who drove
the furthest.
9. The baby’s birth is getting closer. Mom and dad will have a ball, so pass this the lady who is the
most tall.
10. We hope you’re all having fun, and we tried to include most everyone, from the largest purse to the
largest shoe. Now, pass this now to the gal to the right of you.
11. The shower is almost over, and the punch is nearly gone. Pass this to the lady with the smallest
earrings on.
12. There won’t be time to practice, and there won’t be time to rehearse. Pass this to the lady with
the most lipstick in her purse.
13. Roses are red, Violets are blue, pass this to the lady to the left of you.
14. On this last line, we’re ending this rhyme. The gift on the table is mine….how fine!
