W ORDS go buzzing around in Ollie Reeves' head until two or more that sound alike strike up a speaking acquaintance. Then Ollie Reeves sits down and writes a poem. For him, it's easy. He just naturally has a knack fer rhyming words, as you quickly note when you read his "Rhyme A Day" in The Constitution. Poet laureate of Georgia, Ollie Reeves generally writes with a touch light as a blown kiss but then sometimes his wards sit down on you like a bciling mad bumble bee. He likes to "kid" in verse, and nothing suits his fancy better than to pick some oddity in the news and poke a little poetic fun at it. So, you see, there's many a smile at breakfast over Ollie Reeves' rhymes.
