Rip Van Winkle
Wake me from my slumber
As it’s been too many years
My hair has grown so long
I even have a beard
I slept there as a boy
But awakened as a man
Not learning all I needed
To be the best I can
So now I must endure
Many learning days ahead
I’ll be careful not to let myself
Fall asleep when not in bed.
LOL
