Beins Family >> Reunions >> 2002 Reunion >> Ross Poem's

Throughout the years Ross Beins has blessed us with his gift of poetry.

This year he showed "he's still got it"!

During the tallying of points at the Digital camera road rally Ross graced us with

"Win at any cost"

It's with a great deal of pride, and a little shame,
That I comment a moment on the "Road Rally" game.
There are many teams who were forthright and fair,
But a couple of them did some things that were rare.

For instance, what I call a "tractor" is air conditioned and large
And a "body of water" has shores and would hold a large barge.
An "angry land owner" shouldn't stand still and just smile
And coaching the judges I really consider quite vile.

Now I know I must give credit where credit is due,
But with creative chicanery I would like to be through.
So I applaud all the teams who with diligence tried
To provide just ten pictures with fairness applied.


D. Ross Beins

Written for the Beins Family Reunion after the "Beins Road Rally" on 06/15/2002

On Sunday Ross again rose to the occasion by gracing us with a very long poem which was written in response to his travel trailer being Tee-pee'd. This poem entitled "The case of the tee- pee'd trailer" won a big laugh for Cora Jeffers as she was pointed to be the ring leader.
