'“The hope of democracy lies in education”
With apologies to Colonel Roosevelt
and the author of the poem entitled
"The Charge of the Light Brigade”
I submit these lines. You know that
it is hard to resist when tempted so

IF’S
If we were all good no one would be
bad.
If birds were dragons we’d soon
burn up.
If horses were lions we’d have a big
menagerie.
If wewere ALL mules we’d bequite
stubnrn.
If barbers were buaes they’d be
quite thick.
Never to imagine
Always try to know
And if ynu can't do that,
Try good sense to show.
