Here we come


 First day

Here we come

Walking down the street

John Clare Stokes 


My first day fifth grade

Went off without a hitch

Made friends with a fellow

Named Freddy Fitch

His daddy owns the A&P

My Teacher is Mrs Turner

She had us hide beneath our desks

In case of a nuclear war

Met two twins named

Stuart and Stephen

They are quite mod

Their daddy is Winston

And he’s the professor of 

Science at Asbury

I hope I fit right in

I couldn’t decide whether

I’d go as Robin or Bruce Wayne

But in the end

Decided upon Davy Jones

Of the Monkee’s you see

I think it was a good decision

This girl April asked if I’d 

Walk her down the street to Girl Scouts

All the way to the first Baptist

Protect her you see

Just in case some Penguins

or Jokers

Lay hidden

In the beautiful Kentucky 

Blue grass.

It’s going to be a good year.
