To People

People are creatures of many professions
Who busily strive to increase their possessions.
People are found in the widest assortment
Though some may be careless about their deportment.
But people are people wherever you find them
With intricate interrelations to bind them.
And people will always be people forever
Despite any adverse endeavor whatever.
So here's to the people, their sons and their daughters
Who live on the shores of terrestrial waters.
