A Poem for Holden Caulfield
I can see you and I can see me
And I realize we're not so different are we?
I've been down on my luck, just like you
We all have times we feel we won't make through
But the clock has a funny way of keeping with time
And outlooks change when the sun begins to shine
And the ducks have a funny way
Of making it through
And so will I
And so will you
