Fertilizer Helps Their Love to Grow

January 7, 2010

In Zwingle, Iowa, Dick Kleis wanted to spell out to his wife just how much he loved her.  For a birthday surprise, he created a shorthand message meaning “Happy Birthday, Love You,” using 120,000 pounds of manure.  According to Kleis, it was easy work because he used “the good, soft, gushy, warm stuff . . . that kind of melts the snow.”  What was Carole Kleis’ reaction?  She said her husband “dung good.” 

On an Iowa woman, we take great pity
Her husband thought a manure message was pretty
His cows must have had the runs
‘Cause he used about 60 tons
And many would say his gift was rather sh****
