Ode to the Nimby's & Banana's

Ode to the Moaner's The Groaners et al...Banana's & Nimby's

Tho few do they number,

Their Moans & Gripes,

Get Dumber & Dumber.They Gripe at the Folks

That want to build on the Hill,

Plus thoughts of 4 Stories,

Just make them Ill.Don't build in our Hillsides,

Don't build in our Town,

As a matter of fact,

Don't even come Down,They go to their meetings,

They Moan to each other,

We need to stop the Developers,

So they will Discover,We want nothing built Here,

We want nothing built There,

If we had out Wish,

We'd leave it as Ish,Some New Folks have come,

To build on the Hill,

So Nimby's take Note,

They found a way with no Vote!!!Rellis Smith
