Her Small Town Hero


Her Small Town Hero

by Lord R.e. Taylor


She loved her small town
Such characters everywhere
The one she loved best was Turner
He says that he is more than 200 years old
Yet everyone thinks he is in his 80s
He tells fantastic stories
Every one about his life long ago
For a man who voted for Thomas Jefferson
His mind is still sharp as a whip
And, for that small town
Turner is a treasure they can never lose
