Harry N. Atwood, the noted aviator, was the guest of honor at a dinner in New York, and on the occasion his eloquent reply to a toast on aviation terminated neatly with these words:

“The aeroplane has come at last, but it was a long time coming. We can imagine Necessity, the mother of invention, looking up at a sky all criss-crossed with flying machines, and then saying, with a shake of her old head and with a contented smile:

“‘Of all my family, the aeroplane has been the hardest to raise.’”

A genius who once did aspire

To invent an aerial flyer,

When asked, “Does it go?”

Replied, “I don’t know;

I’m awaiting some damphule to try ‘er”.

This team has come into its own,

As they left the whale up there,

Each one does play fair and square.

Now starting here ten years ago,

Things sure did begin very slow,

Both the team and fans traveled far,

That sure could make a long memoir.

Everyone watched as number ten retired,

And the longtime coach was fired,

Only one of them still plays on the ice,

Watch as his moves are very precise.

While they have been playing in this state,

Every player proved they’re first-rate,

The highest prize was won here,

People far away could hear the fans cheer.

I see the rail road crossing,

I stop at the crossing,

To search both ways,

I see the mid night train come pass by me,

I stop and wonder,

Which way to go,

Right or Left,

Or do I take the road in fort of me………

Oh how nice to see that the rail crossing has stop the signal,

For me,

The green light comes on now it’s time for me to leave, and to see that the right path for me has been chosen for me…………..
