"Tour Bus"
There was a loud "ONE", followed by a click, then "TWO", click. From the voice I knew exactly where to look. Looking in the mirror I spied the snowman shaped second grader with his little round face and round body. His face was as red as his hair and he held a pencil in each hand over his head. It continued, "THREE" and he clicked the pencils together. With the shout of "FOUR" and a clicking of the pencils the hands came down and a drum solo started on the back of that seat that would have made any rock drummer envious. A few more strokes of those magic pencils and he yelled out, "Gentlemen, I believe we have found ourselves a DRUMMER!" Waiting for the finale, that all great drummers are known for, I held my breath and was not disappointed. The energy and beat came to a crescendo, he threw up his hands, a pencil sailed to the back of the bus, and with hands still in the air he screamed out, "WE LOVE YOU WORLD PEACE". A wipe of the forehead and all was quiet. In my mind I already see his smiling face on the cover of "Rolling Stone". I'm going to get five copies for my.............. Go ahead and sing it, I was.
