Stanford
by Brian Kunde

Between the foothills and the bay it sits,
A scattering of buildings roofed in tiles,
Where students come to sharpen up their wits
To pass exams, and sharpen up their wiles
For finding occupations after. It’s
The only university for miles
Where learning can attain its fullest flower—
The only one, at least, that’s got a tower.
