Acronyms and Initials

Certain words and numbers
We can identify
In the English language
We never question why

We know that television
Is shortened to TV
It’s easier to say
Don’t we all agree

Initials JFK
Many do remember
A youthful president
Killed in late November

FDR was a president
During World War 2
His legs were paralyzed
Not many people knew

The IRS we know
Will tax us once a year
The money we’ve have made
How much we owe, we’ll fear

The FBI investigates
Crimes that do take place
By helping the police
Protect the human race

Airport acronyms
You will identify
Just make a reservation
Then go ahead and fly

And now there’s 9/11
Events we shall remember
Terrifying lives
Near the middle of September

We’ll keep on using acronyms
We won’t know in advance
When they will occur
They’ll happen just by chance
