Burbank to Burbank
Jun 15, 2009 by Naomi.
From Burbank to Burbank
I’m destined to flit
by auto or airliner
I just get to sit
By car scenery flies right by
By plane I see the full scene from on high.
The how is adventure one way or another
destination is more dear to this mother.
Burbank California the target I boast
More transport to Daniel on toward the coast
Oxnard — city built on the fertile plain
agricultural products had most to gain.
Sugar beet factory gave city its name
Four Oxnards, Ben, Robert, Henry and James.
Acres of strawberries a few blocks away
can be seen from Melito Drive any old day.
But I digress from the city I come
Burbank where my Refuge is home.
Incorporation, the city has not,
just Roadhouse Cafe with burgers hot
a Post Office and Grange Hall and schools for kids all.
Grain terminal on one end of the town
stores and ships grain that is grown.
The soil in this region does make things grow
and honors the Burbank who invented potato.
