Autumn

In the valley once so green
leaves are leaving trees behind
Grey geese heading south are seen
a certain Autumn sign
Though darkness falls and winter's near
and summer's far away
I can say be of good cheer
it will return some day

The leaves that fall are blushing
as if they were embarrassed
by leaving their trees undressed
The birds have ceased their singing
though tunes of summer linger
yet the flower have gone to rest

The valley once so green
Grey geese heading south are seen
Summer yet so far away
I know it will return some day

A cold and misty morning
is letting us all know
a new season is dawning
when summer has let go...

~Bo Bernvill~

ODE TO LURCH

They said he was a hero
But treason was his game
He threw away his medals
And trashed his country's name

He came from wealth and priv'ledge
Four months in ‘Nam and gone
Unfit as a commander
Sent home his job undone

So now he wants to lead us
He says he is the one
Though while he was in Senate
He failed to get things done

He was against our bombers
And even flak vests too
He wanted us defenseless
He never had a clue

Tax and spend and tax some more
As liberals will do
He'd waste it all on something
That wont help me or you

So when he asks for my vote
I'll go the other way
He's slick and very botoxed
But Dubya makes my day
