I want to thank you. I want to thank the men At the bus stop With smiles and ties Reminding me that I wasn't a deer in the headlights of destruction To my legs And October 21st When they carried me home Strong willed and striking the ground with unwavering steps For that day I took the bus By myself And still felt a small sheet Of saftey To Cherry Street and Pearl Street For easing my mind when I thought I was completely lost For the kids with backpacks And pink hair Because their home is mine too.

Dear Burlington,
I want to thank you. I want to thank the men At the bus stop With smiles and ties Reminding me that I wasn't a deer in the headlights of destruction To my legs And October 21st When they carried me home Strong willed and striking the ground with unwavering steps For that day I took the bus By myself And still felt a small sheet Of saftey To Cherry Street and Pearl Street For easing my mind when I thought I was completely lost For the kids with backpacks And pink hair Because their home is mine too.
