Combine Carolina Contests

Past Will Find Behind Predict that past will always find behind; Would be best if both Carolina's combine; A poetry and book contest be presenting; Both Carolinas am sure are consenting. There are those who lie and are alibiing; New plans and ways we should be trying; After being prepared, over and done, We are sure and certain is best one. Of you attention want this to be in center; Both Carolinas residents could now enter, And according to latest scoop and poop Will Rogers threw lariats having a loop. (Statue standing in Capital Building.) So we can further add to drastic drama, Go ahead and toss in State of Oklahoma; Had been original home of the Cherokee; After Trail of Tears in Carolina are now free. Jim Horn History With Much Misery Cherokee all have such a long history, And some of it contained much misery; Many tears were spread along a trail; Ended up in Carolina weak and frail. Formed communities built on their own; Built out of rocks, loose dirt and stone; They existed and have been educated;; All of their proud parents were elated. While Cherokee learned to read and write; To participate in contest we should invite; On each Carolina would have wonder effect; Both of the states at same time should select . Jim Horn
