Sadness in Happy Valley
Posted: November 13, 2011
Why State College is in an unhappy state…
Happy Valley's rather sad.
Paterno' fans are stunned and mad.
The patriarch of college ball
has coached his final game.
But think of those Sandusky sacked.
The innocent whom he attacked.
Are not the crimes that make God weep
more cause to make them sad?
And while they grieve that Joe Pa's gone,
let's pray this scandal prompts the dawn
when blindside sins and blind-eyes turned
are labeled what they are.
