The Greats: Poems about Characters in Movies & Other Stories

Chapter 11 - Stephen

Forrest Gump

He was born in Alabama,

and he lived with his mama.

His only friend was Jenny,

and was never charged of felony.

He had bright blue eyes,

just like the sky's.

He had flat hair,

with help from the air.

He always liked running,

and his look are very stunning.

He had joined the war,

but he never felt sore.

He met a man named Bubba,

And,you know that gum with the start of Hubba?

His general was shot in the war,

And it seemed he could not walk to the store.

In the end he was all happy,

Even though his life seemed crappy.

He had witnessed many shots and deaths,

and he's a solider without a crest.
