3 little boys Running and yelling Saying hello to strangers Supposedly "afraid of nothing"
We came to church one day Before their choir class A lady said hi And they calmed down at last
Another stranger Very polite Wondered about Their past day and night
Her accent was different Swedish, but spoke Russian She had a limp But was never rushin'
Talk of good books How math is better And science is okay All of her joy; I should write a letter
I didn't know her name Much less what to write But I did know She was all right
So I wrote this poem Call it my thank you letter For inspiring me And 3 little boys, who now know better
