Plaque

The lone star rolls up on the little rock
From his state of my way, highway ego
He scoffs at the inconvenience of a road
And at the X, tells me which way my bow ought to go

So I sat and saw
How I could have my twinkie and eat it too
How I could have legs like stilts and

The Plaque

1908
Last day at school for me
Some thirteen years Ive had
And Im going to be a farm hand
Just like me dear old Dad

Here now its Mr Peters
A silence falls over the class
'Registration' he says as he does every day
I am Williams and always called last

Boys first as always he starts,
I know it off by heart,
Abbot, Brown

Do Not Play With Plaque

Do Not Play with Plaque

We prefer that you do not play with plaque,
Or much more decay soon may come back;
Even if your gums and skin are both porous,
Come to dentist office and join their chorus.

They there become monitor and regulator;
Did use both dental floss and a stimulator;
Breathing fresh air is the best substance;
Bad breath brings

At Last a Candid Memorial Plaque

At Last a Candid Memorial Plaque

By Elton Camp

At the park I saw an astonishing sight
A different plaque was really a delight

I stood agape and read it for a minute
“Joe Bucklesby hated this park & all in it.”

For never  before in my “borned days”
Have I seen anything other than praise

“Moe Morris was everyone’s friend.
It’s so

Mourning Over the Locust Plaque

Some sounds like the noise of bees
Hovering around the atmosphere
Or like rain drops on our roof tops,
I opened my round window
The window of my hut,
I wanted to know
Why my sleep won't mellow,
All i saw was sorrow
As the atmosphere turned green.
The cassava farm was over shadowed
Banana plantation feebled,
Apple orchard struggled
Yet their efforts stifled,
Lemon grass for mama's

The Plaque, the Cure

There is no disease

                           As deadly as a man's hate...

I have up over my door at home,
a plaque that's sure a dandy.
The message that it sends to me,
has really been quite handy.

I've had this treasure many years,
by mother it was given.
To commemorate the path I'd chose,
that would lead to heaven.

The message there most aptly put,
gives this room some class.
For of Christ I am reminded,
when
