NYU (For Frank)

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I would not be
caught dead
With a blue Violet
at NYU.

A loyal alum
Of Washington Square
Where guitarists
would strum
To no-ones aware.

With sheepskin in hand
In Latin no-less
I roamed this great land
Seeking success.

I did the school right
By making my mark
Never losing sight
Of my roots in New York.

With a look back nostalgic
In those rose colored glasses
With my school reunion clique
And wish I was back in classes.
