Empire Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

Named were they,
To become kings of power!

Gay Hall
Overton
Cecil

Donald
Edward
Albert

Lawrence

Named were they...
Because they were queens!

Anna
Lorraine
Virginia
Sandra
Leola
Edna
Emily
Isabelle
Catherine
Clara, Jr.
Jesse

These are the children...
Born to aspire.
To nurture the beginnings
Planted and branched...
From the foundation of an Empire!
Strengthen at the base by Countryman roots!
