Ottoman Trip Over Poem by Ima Ryma

'The Dick Van Dyke Show' first began
Without a clever opening.
To rescue came the ottoman
Over which would be a tripping
Or not be a tripping by Dick.
And viewers would make bets upon,
Each week's show a guess which one pick,
First for T.V. phenomenon.
Dick actually did the stunt of
Trip over the ottoman, cuz
Buster Keaton, who Dick did love,
Taught Dick the 'drop and roll' that was.

So most famous ottoman be
Ever in T.V. history.
