The Crooner

By Andrew R. Duckworth

Cream color hat and a pastel suit
Swaggers to the stage
Some majesty in those blue eyes
And the voice comes out swinging.
Belt after belt with those long notes
Frank will sing us down to a pleasant mood
Dean will slur a bit but he’ll be a hit
Jerry will sing those sweet Italian songs
Voices soothe those daily wrongs
And we’ll all take a drink
As those words make us think
Of a better time with a better rhyme.
