Ode To Maura
Maura is real tall
When she rides her bike she falls
She got a swimsuit at the mall
But she is still my friend
She digs in the dirt all day
And listens to whatever I have to say
She's quitting the end of May 
But she is still my friend 
We talk about lots of things 
There are lots of songs we sing 
Sometimes dirt she flings(at me) 
But she is still my friend 
We discuss our dreams 
Share a fear of wooden beams (one's nailed by Thoma's)
Our friendship may not be what it seems 
But she is still my friend 
Someday we will part 
And we wont do stupid things like go to Wal-Mart
But she'll be in my heart 
Because she is my friend
