Dr. Gorman

It probably seems like more than just two decades
Of unruly students and other literary escapades
But it seems like only days to those of us both old and new
Who have stumbled across poetry classes and you.

While this may seem like just another cheap
And craft(less) gimmick poem for you to keep
Until you run out of space in your cluttered drawers
Know this: UHCL will miss you wandering its floors.

So when you sit down in your recliner at night
And flip through old papers ‘neath the lamp light,
I hope you will take just a minute or two
To reflect on everything we have learned because of you.

And should you ever start to miss this crazy bunch,
We’ll be more than happy to meet you for lunch
At Café Express with a table and a hat in the center
Putting in tips to learn from our favorite adored mentor.
