Barry Van Allen - Twelve and two thirds

Here's a ten,
there's a ten,
every one is giving ' tens'!

I know that I deserve an eight,
O.K. - - - I would be happy with a six on that,
please be honest with us!

Just look through the archives,
Re - read those 'tens',
did you really think so?
I did not really think so!

Nice is nice - - -
but, honest is honest!

The 'tens' are very rare from me,
but when there is one,
be assurred... it is deserved!

Barry Van Allen
