Poem :: Poems

As we sat around like every other day, We decided we could no longer stay. So we packed up the van And we were determined to darken our tan. California was where we were going To the beach where it’s never snowing. We were off to watch the scenery during the day And at night, find the best partay. By now you’re wondering who is we It is five of my friends and don’t forget me. So without further adieu Let me introduce my crew. First on my list Is a man who is hard to miss. He wears a bright orange coat But is rarely one to gloat. He frequently runs naked through the streets But is a friend to most anyone he meets. He is the kind of guy that is never a stranger He waves to everyone in his Ford Ranger. His music is a unique pick Pretending to play along is his trick. He works at the hardware store called ACE But teaching is what he wishes to chase. Hunting and skanking is what he loves to do His name is Mickey now onto number two.

Soccer’s what he loves to play Instead he’s stuck at work all day. When it comes to humor he’s the best At funny stories, he’s better then the rest. He tried to change the color of his hair Many people just turned to stare. With his future he is still unclear Purdue is where he’d like his path to steer. As for worries he has none His mind is set on having fun. This trip is all he has on his mind Now we have the fourth member to find. The next member lives down the street form me. My college roommate will soon be he. He is the tallest of our six His basement’s where we watch our flicks. A ’97 Camero is what he drives An I.S.U. education is for what he strives. A hockey goalie he used to play,
