Mr. White Shoes:Military Kid Memories

Mr. Chip's
Dad called him Roger

I called him cool

man it's been such

A long time ago

But many of dad's

inner circle

Are still around

Roger or Mr. Ward

In those days he

Was Sergeant Ward

With his cool white shoes

Unique all the way

Though the years

Come and go

You remember

The good people

Who have made

An impact on your life

Dad's friend from TN

All the gatherings

the fun everyone on

the Air base in Altus

Oklahoma had

Back then he called

Me the "Professor"

I had these big glasses

Man it would be so great

to go back to those

times again

Perhaps one day I will

See Roger again

Until then if you are

Reading this Sarge

To take a line from

The song here's to

You buddy, "For the good times."

(For Roger, Mr. TP "Parker", Captain Johnson, Dosh in FL and all Sonny6killer Rice's buddies)
