Debbie Middaugh Poet Rhyme

1920 To 1929

I am the roaring twenties 
And the cotton club. 
   I am Al Capone and his 
Thugs. 

   I am the rise of Joseph 
Stalin. 
   I am the age of science 
And penicillin. 

   I am Walt Disney and 
Mickey Mouse. 
   I am electricity in 
My house. 

   I am the stock market 
Crash. 
   I am the first Academy 
Award bash. 

   I am Miss America pageant 
The first time. 
   I am Valentino dies reads 
The headlines. 

   I am the great depression 
Sweeps the land. 
   I am Lindbergh on north 
Atlantic flight plan. 

   I am Betty Crocker and 
Wonder bread. 
   I am the great migration 
Watch me spread. 

   I am speakeasies and Gerber 
Baby food. 
I am the age of Jazz puts 
You in the mood. 

   I am the woman's right to 
Vote ,19th amendment. 
   I am seven-up, Coca cola's 
First resentment. 

 
     Turbo1904
