Seen Years : A designated poem
Recently the news all across town
Was about who got the square gown
Relief came at last to many faces
With smiles replacing many a frown
Some got it early, some got it late
Some thanked luck, some cursed fate
It is never easy to pick and choose
A few out of many to designate
Though it was not quite apparent
The process appeared transparent
Insiders bet that strings were pulled
Outsiders still feign to be ignorant
In this game of odds and even
105 aspired but chosen were 37
Rejected ones missed their flight
Selected ones flew to heaven
So it’s time to wish them well
Them on whom Lady Luck befell
Bar rooms will soon be full of them
And resemble assemblies in hell
-Gobble D. Gook
