Charles Henderson Poet Rhyme

The Girls From Worchester

In the army I was stationed for basic training close to Worchester Mass.  The girls there never pronounced Worchester even remotely close to the way it is spelled.  The name would sound more closely like Woostah.  So, this poem is dedicated to them and their uniqueness.

Here's tah 
the girls of Woostah.
The one's we ustah
get close tah
and pretend tah
dance tah 
the Sambah.
