Analysis of Boys
Justin, Josh, and Jacob,
friends of my past time.
Jonathan, John, and Joseph,
always spent more then a dime.
Chris, Caleb, and Cory
wanted "it" everyday.
Cain, Calvin, and Caki,
wanted "it" anyway.
Joe, Johnny, and Joshua,
wanted it any place.
Christopher, Cal, and Cevin,
said, "In any space".
Poetry is a beautiful thing.
to many different folks.
It rhymes, it don't rhyme,
that's life, and how it goes.
