Small Town

Gossip goes round and round

There he is, don't look, 
Don't let him see you stare
His poor parents what they must 
Think. Such a good lad he was
Back then. Curly haired little boy,
Full of laughter, full of beans,
Not in a bad way by any means.

He dated my Sarah in high school,
So handsome, so well mannered,
Still is by all accounts, but 
Who would have thought back then
what we now know. There but by 
The Grace of God, could we all go.
