Ellie Manning
It comes when the mailman knocks at the door
I have an old stack but I want more
You read it to know what's going on
Besides what is happening in their neighbors front lawn
Even though its black and white
Most people think that's alright
A few people read it while drinking coffee
Some like it better than news on TV
Some people read it when their old
yet a couple read it when its cold
even though its white and black
nobody wants to take it back
