HISTORY TEACHER

I had history teaches
To drool for:

I had a 60 peace throw back
Wishing him a witch’s spell.

I had a pre- yuppies, Hippie
conscience on the Earth, not her children.

I had a 70’s Rocker
Teaching history with examples of the Beatles.

I had a tight-wade
With a Punctuality complex

I had a jean wearing, open,
White, buttoned down shirt

I had a blue eyed muscle man
Who sat crossed leg on the

History teacher’s desk!
Ahhhh History!

To be again,
Knowing then

What I have learned until now.
