Part Six
With his cloak and gloves George did arrive
In a shiny sportscar he did drive
He clapped his hands and clicked his heels
Then he roared again and said “It feels
GREAT each time I cross the grass,
Dreaming of vines and lifting a glass.
I’m in the grip of a glimpse of glory
But the tale of my crown is another story.”
Use this copy of the poem to make notes about stress.
