SCHOOL DAZE POETRY EXTRAVAGANZA


artwork by Scott Gustafson

Freedom Rings

Humpty Dumpty sat on his swing
back and forth, he started to sing:
“no need for horses from my king,
this is freedom to which I cling."

Humpty Dumpty has fun at play
on this beautiful sunny day;
now, at last he can finally say:
“I get to live my life, my way.”
