Mr. Rodgers
Mr. Rodgers was a dear old man there was
nothing he didn't understand he would feed
the chickens and talk to them a mile away
dear mr. Rodgers please don't go away he
would always say good morning and good
evening he never said an unspoken word of
of meanest every sunday he was ready for
church and never missed a beat nor a button
on his shirt all the ladies liked him so
well but everyone could tell his heart was
still with his beloved wife sarah who has
gone to heaven I wish I could meet old mr.
rodgers we haven't seen him in weeks last I
heard he met sarah at the side of the road
I will never forget old mr. Rodgers and all
that he stood for I hope I will be able to
meet him at the side of the road someday.
