With the Lord, I can do hard things - Sister Elaine Dalton


A Tag is at the end of a song
Hey is something you play all night long,
Wearing gloves in 105
Don't you dare dip or dive,
Hangin' with friends all the time
Instruments are oiled, didn't cost a dime
Trumpets got it easy, Baritones got it hard
Mellophones can't see as they march yards and yards
Alphabet of seven letters , memorized in my head
Sunburns on fire til you got to bed
Split a yard, down the middle
Go ahead and live a little
Join the Mighty Marching Band
And we'll see how long you can stand.

I would melt. First day. Easy. But loved the poem! Especially describing the instrument groups individually.
