"U" Essay

by DAVID V. APPLEYARD

Of all of the letters
I love to read,
U has a message
I feel I must heed.

For U is unUsual,
And U is Unique;
U has a bottom
Well-rounded and sleek.

Then U has two sides,
In front and behind;
The difference between them
So clearly defined.

With U in University,
And the US of A,
U is a letter
I'll not throw away.

With U now in U-turn,
U still turns me on,
And U will stay youthful
When I's youth has gone.
