ROCK’EM SOCK’EM ROBOTS
DEDICATED TO MY FOUR BOYS, RONNIE, STEVIE, BRUCE AND ALAN; THEIR WIVES, KAREN, MAUREEN, JOANNE AND MARIE; TO MY NINE GRANDCHILDREN, BEN, JASON, ASHLEY, MATT, EVAN, ALEX, EMILY, JAKE AND MARGOT; AND TO MY SEVEN GREAT-GRANDCHILDREN, RYAN, RYLEE, ETALIA, JAILEE, ARIELLA, SAL AND ANDREW.
WHEN RONNIE AND STEVIE WERE LITTLE BOYS
SOL GAVE EACH OF THEM A WONDERFUL TOY
CALLED “ROCK’EM SOCK’EM ROBOTS."
WE RAISED OUR BOYS
AND THEY LIVED THAT WAY TOO
SO WHEN FATE PUNCHES THEM
THEY KNOW WHAT TO DO.
THE BLOWS MAY HIT HARD
AND IN SORROW WE MAY DROWN
BUT WITH GOD’S HELP
WE WILL NOT STAY DOWN.
SURE WE MAY CRY AND BE SAD
FOR A LITTLE WHILE
BUT WE WILL JUMP UP
HEY LOOK AT US
HERE COMES A SMILE!
I WONDER IF IN HEAVEN ABOVE
RONNIE, NOW WITH STEVIE AND SOL
ARE GIVING SIMILAR TOYS
TO LITTLE BOYS
WHO SHARE THEIR LOVE
FOR ROCK’EM SOCK’EM ROBOTS.
