DHS Tales
While being at DHS and walking the halls
I’ve met many people, interesting all.
They are all different, none are the same
No one, not anyone, a lad or a dame.
Some I’ve never talked to, some to I’ve spoken a word
But most people, my voice they have heard.
I’d like to tell about them in my tale
I won’t mention them all, three of each ladies and males.
Why choose these six and not other ones?
These will be the ones most creatively done.
I’ll tell you about their looks and their style
And if they are nice and would go the extra mile.
So without more reading and without further ado
I give five friends and one of my teachers to you.
First there is Chris, my truly best friend
To me a hand he always does lend.
He is somewhat tall and has a mathematical brain
His most distinguishing feature is his hair hurricanes.
He is a musician, a student, a runner
And some things he says can really be a stunner.
He has a girlfriend, Tracy is her name
And to be dating her he should not have a shame.
His usual clothing t-shirt and jeans
Chris is a guy who never is mean.
His face is usually sporting a smile
Even when he sings his eyebrows are raised a mile.
And even though Chris is really kind of skinny
You better watch out because he is no ninny.
Don’t be afraid of Chris though and here is why
He is just your average top of the line nice guy.
My friend Maggie is the next you will meet
You could never find another person so sweet.
She’s very intelligent, wow is she smart
She is also very talented in performing arts.
She plays oboe and flute, she acts, dances, and sings
She is just as pretty as a bird in flight with it’s wings.
Maggie is the kind of person you’re lucky to befriend.
If you have problems, with them she will help you mend.
She has a lot of confidence from what I can tell
She also always dresses fashionably well.
To have Maggie as a friend I know I’ve been struck
By good, old fashioned, plain, old, top-of-the-line luck.
Next I’d like you to meet my friend Dan
Let me tell you he is the man.
He is one of the smartest people I know
He definitely isn’t one of your plain old Joes.
He knows history like the back of his hand
His knowledge of the military is just grand.
He dresses in khaki’s and usually a drama shirt
Although he is usually reading his brain is alert.
He is rather skinny and also quite tall
When it comes to helping out he goes beyond the call.
When you get down to it, he’s an awesome guy
He’s one of the secrets of Dalton High.
Now to Alexis, one of my newer friends
When we need to vent, on each other we depend.
We tell each other problems and get some advice
Usually using Instant Messenger, what a wonderful device.
This is yet another one of my friends who is smart
When it comes to a battle of wits she’s as smart as a dart.
She dresses very nicely and smiles a lot, too
She can always cheer you up, when you’re feeling blue.
I am certainly glad I found her as a friend this year
Otherwise I would have gone crazy I fear.
On to my friend Darin, here’s a quiet one
Who usually is worried about getting his Comp. done.
When it comes to Mustangs, you know the car,
This guy’s knowledge goes very, very far.
Usually in jeans, a striped shirt and some tennis shoes
When you need a good laugh with Darin you can’t lose.
He works at Das Dutch, he is a grill cook
So you might want to give your food a second look.
All in all Darin’s a good man
You should go meet him as fast as you can.
Now to a teacher, known as Mrs. ED
To leave her behind next year I do dread.
She is a good friend, not just an educator
She will listen to problems and be an argument regulator.
She not only somewhat serves as our own Dalai Lama
She also is awesome at art and drama.
She is defiantly the best drama coach around
The impact she leaves on students is profound.
The things she has taught me I shall never forget
Whether it is a dramatic pause or how to paint a sunset.
Mrs. ED is a wonderful, wonderful teacher
I think she is one of the God’s perfect human creatures.
There you have it, my friends from Dalton
Some people here can’t compare to anyone.
Some of the world’s best people are in this town
When you are around them it is hard to frown.
So if you ever come through our way
Don’t be scared to stop and stay.
Check out the Dariette and stop by the Bliss
But talk to some of the people or you’ll miss,
The best part of our little place.
I’m sure you’ll find someone who will to you embrace.
