I Gazed With Wonder |
Can a person step into the past? Well, that�s what I did today. Before you show disbelief, Listen to what I have to say. I stood right next to our president, the great F.D.R. Alongside him was Churchill, smoking a big cigar. Stalin was beside them, standing stiff and stern, And Chaing Kai Shek looked on, showing great concern. When I came to Napoleon, I looked him square in the eye. With his hand in his vest and his three-cornered hat, He almost seemed sort of shy. Was the world really afraid of such a little guy? Scarlet O�Hara was jealous when Rhett Butler looked at me. The giant Frankenstien was a horrible sight to see. I saw Einstien and Thomas Edison, too. Out of the past such wonderful people came into my view. And then I came to a table.. seated were thirteen men, In the center was the one, who was born to accept our sin. Yes, it was the last supper, right before my eyes. I gazed with wonder at our Lord, so gentle and so wise. Yes at Tussaud�s Wax-Works I saw it all. You may want to laugh and squeal. They say these figures are made of wax.. But to me, they were real. THE END |
