TRUE TEACHINGS
Edward Iacona
Here are some true things I have learned:
I have learned lessons from books
Such as Green Eggs And Ham.
I have read that Rhett Butler just
Does not give a damn.
A sweet potato is not
The same thing as a Yam
History tells that Thailand
Was once called Siam
And French Indo China
Is now Viet Nam
When closing doors
One should not slam
If I take it on the lam
Means it's time for me to scram.
Addressing women politely
One can say "Maam"
A male bighorn sheep is
Also called a Ram.
I like jelly on toast and
I also like jam.
Edison's first recording was
Mary Had A Little Lamb.
Don't do things to later regret
In front of a video cam.
I have even read the book
Ruba'iat Of Omar Khayya'm
And, now I own a Cell phone that
Is much smarter than I am!
