Askennonia
by Earl Veale – Let’s Write
If you feel sad or kind of blue
we have just the place for you.
Askennonia.
If you like to joke, and laugh, and sing,
the Coffee House is just the thing
at Askennonia.
If you want to carve, or play the Wii,
or exercise, or do tai chi,
it's Askennonia.
Clogging, carpet bowling or beading for you?
We have these and lots more too
at Askennonia.
Let's talk, Let's Write or review a book,
you can even learn to cook,
at Askennonia.
You could always join the choir,
for things to do, we never tire,
at Askennonia.
Square dance, belly dance, line dance do,
even find a romance or two,
at Askennonia.
There are cards to play, like bridge and euchre,
or take a course and learn the computer
at Askennonia.
If it’s stage shows you like so much,
come with us, we take a bus,
at Askennonia.
Your driving skills not up to par?
Take the driving course and you'll go far
at Askennonia.
I've mentioned most of the things we do,
so now it's simply up to you.
Come and join and have lots of fun.
There's something here for everyone,
at Askennonia.
