Now And Then And Back Again: The Cavaliers Poem by Angela M. Maynard

Now And Then And Back Again: The Cavaliers



So long ago
There was a group
13 girls were bored
A movie to see
Is what they wanted
But the rule would not allow

To see a movie
The 13 girls
Formed a group
The rules did allow
Them to see the movie

A new group was formed
What name should it have
Different from others
Were these 13 girls
Cavaliers they were
They chose to go Rogue

Rogue was the name
Of this new group
With a ball and a chain
And jail stripes on
These 12 girls
Were Rogue

Years passed by
The 13 grew
13 no more
Many more have chosen
To join the cavaliers
And go Rogue

Years come and go
Cavaliers come and grow
With new friends
Cavaliers grow more Rogue
13 no more
So many more

Since so long ago
Cavaliers have come and gone
The group in place was
Not always 13
Numbers have no meaning
But 13 it is again

In 1938
13 went to a movie
Thus forming the Rogues
In 2008
A new 13 has formed
Rogue has last so long

70 years
Of friends and sisters
Many have come and gone
And come back again
To watch and remember
As Rogue keeps growing strong
