1492
They don’t teach like they used to
Back when I was still in school.
So many facts I learned
Just aren’t taught now, as a rule.
Yet there is one true constant
And I’m sure you learned it, too:
In 1492
Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
Yes, that year is like a trigger
That gets pulled inside our brains;
Of all the dates from history,
That single one remains.
So poetry has done its job
And teachers throughout time
Have been grateful that Columbus
Had a year and feat that rhyme!
