There was a parade Saturday night in the neighboring town. Here are the highlights (or lowlights -- depending on your sensibilities)
(Toy soldiers on parade)
Watch the sun dipping
Moms with strollers tripping
Across the not-quite-closed-off street
Everybody’s bumping
Kids on sugar jumping
More than once I had stomped-on feet
Light the lights!
It’s almost night
Titusville is on parade
Muskets are booming
Muscle cars vrooming
Hawkers yell to sell their ware
Cymbals are plashing
Midget cars crashing
You can’t see that just anywhere
Here the bells ringing
Here the choir singing
Of peace on earth, goodwill to man
See the church floats glowing
Christmas spirit showing
They tell it to anyone they can
Light the lights!
It’s almost night
Titusville is on parade
Walkers candy throwing
Dump trucks fake snow blowing
Neither makes my taste buds sing
On a vintage fire truck
Comes Santa Claus – Oh what luck!
End of the parade does that fire truck bring
Light the lights!
It’s fully night
Titusville was on parade
