Frank Lloyd Wright - Kris



"The Man About Town"


Born of two people strong willed and passionate,

Your mother knew you would be a builder great.

The blocks you toyed with as a toddler small,

Shaped the way you saw when you grew tall.


You once said that we have to see

The whole of life that there can be

To serve this life most completely

Common sence with clean geometry.


In stone and glass you showed us clear,

With great designs by the many score;

The harmony towards which we should steer,

To avoid tradition in structures poor.


Your life was long and full of loves,

Your social life wrought gossip to harm.

A man about town with a lustful eye,

In marriage the third time's a charm!
