A POEM TO JEFF
Well, a new school year has begun,
Are you going to study,or
Will you just want to have fun?
The decision is yours to make.
I hope it is right, for your sake.
Just keep this thought in mind,
A boy of your intelligence should do fine.
If he will only do his best,
On daily work as well as tests.
And then, when a reward comes your way,
You will be able to say,
“I earned it with study,
And not with play!
The moral of this poem is for Jeff to see,
The more good grades he makes,
The greater his reward will be!!!
Composed by Peggy Carr Dodd for her nephew, Jeffery Bryan Rush
