Ode to Adrian

We will Follow Him
Forever
Forever
Left behind
Never
Never

Sandhill Cranes Hoarsely Calling
Snow Geese Everywhere Falling
Bald Eagles High In Trees
Redtail Hawks Such a Tease
Ferruginous Hawks White Tails Flashing
Everything Simply Smashing

We will follow him
Forever
Forever

Ruddy Ducks, American Wigeon, Pintails Swimming
Hurry Now the Light is Dimming
Buckhorn Burgers What a Treat
Glad Peppermints Were There to Eat

Adrian Pointing Out the Sora
In the Midst of the Flora
Jumping Out to See the Thayer
Always Answering Over There
Never Tiring of Answering Where, Where

When You Travel with Binns
Everyone Surely Wins
We Will Follow Him
Forever
Forever
