LOST IN THE PAGES<\/strong><\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

Connecticut Yankees <\/em>
\nand knights brave and bold,<\/em>
\nI’m in King Arthur’s Court <\/em>
\nand in wonder of it all.<\/em>
\nThe armor, the horses,<\/em>
\nthe thrill of the fight,<\/em>
\ncastles and maidens,<\/em>
\na childhood delight<\/em>
\nas I’m lost in the pages<\/em>
\nof my imagination once more<\/em>
\nadventuring down the Mighty Miss<\/em>
\nwith Huck and Tom and all of our friends.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/p>\n

Jumping frogs keep us company<\/em>
\nas we boldly find our way,<\/em>
\nas all we can do is laugh together<\/em>
\nall the day as we try to keep our eyes<\/em>
\non the paths and the rivers in front of us,<\/em>
\nmore adventures and destinations<\/em>
\nto find within our sights<\/em>
\nas we travel to places <\/em>
\nfar and wide as retold<\/em>
\nthrough Mark Twain’s
\ngrand adventures<\/em>
\nas passed down to me.<\/em><\/font><\/p>\n

\nMark Twain is alive and well in my town too,
\nright in front of our library . . . . <\/font><\/em><\/font><\/p>\n
