Best Familyschool Poems
O'er the years my spouse and I have enjoyed Broadway Revues,
And the stars of song and dance on an occasional ocean cruise.
But none will compare to the shows we love the best of all,
Those priceless plays and concerts in the school assembly hall!
We encouraged our little girls in their philharmonic pursuit,
One mastering the clarinet, the other the melodious flute!
We relished each delightful musicale, concert and revue,
Where they proudly performed as their musical confidence grew.
The girls gave us grandkids that have brought us so much joy,
And now we have had their choirs and concerts to enjoy!
(The girls now suffer the din of the squawking clarinet,
Babble of budding actors and the raucous bleat of cornet!)
Our social life was on the skids till great-grandkids arrived.
Thanks to them our entertainment options have been revived!
Lord willing, we'll be privileged to enjoy another generation,
As they perform the arts to complete their cultural education.
Alas, the children's school years have passed so very fleet,
But in that short span they've made our lives more complete!
Tho' the footlights are dimmed and the curtain has been drawn,
Another generation will take the stage and the show will go on!

im from chicken and rice
the mean and the nice
from bad to good
from where people thight i never could
im from georgia and eric the greatest ever
im from double dutch in the streets
with nice flowing beats
from loosing my dad
who was the greatest man i've ever had
to follwing my dream
to being my dream
my life flows like a chocolate steams
im from tears of joy and tears of sad
to be in this world how im so glad
from school to school
moving almost every year some times i wonder is this cool
