My friends are odd
But I’ll explain
For their careers
They’re aptly named
Consider my friend, the runner
Whose various running styles
Are captured most succinctly in
The name he goes by, Miles
The florist whom
Everybody knows
Answers to
The name of Rose
The chef
Who’s quite the pastry maker
Is better known
As Mr. Baker
My friend who earns
A library wage
Is Mrs. Turner
First name, Paige
There is an author
Out of sight
Who’s better known
As Mr. Wright
And then there is the artist
Who has a cool name too
Like Cher, he has a single name
His friends all call him Drew
The guy who fixes up my car
Has certainly got my back
His name fits him most perfectly
Because he’s known as Jack
And when it comes to carpentry
My friend has all the goods
Perhaps you may have heard of him
He goes by Mr. Woods
The sports announcer for my team
I’ve really grown to like
Has got a perfect name for it
Everybody calls him Mike
The molecular biologist
Who’s new upon the scene
Is named with G’s, A’s, T’s and C’s
But everyone calls him Gene
The thief who pilfered in our town
Got chased out by a mob
We should have known what he would do
Because his name was Rob
The English teacher we adore
Has pride of name, indeed
Cuz it is an instruction
Do what he says, Reed
People join the army to
Travel, mature and grow
My buddy’s getting ready to
Become a G.I., Joe
And last, not least one waiter helps
The diners get their fill
But they know what is coming when
They look and see their Bill
