Evergreen Gene’s
It’s right here in town.
All sorts of knickknacks
And plants can be found.
What kind of plant
Or tree do you need?
All sorts of fruit trees
And grape vines
You will see.
Windmills and gizmos
For your backyard.
So many to choose from
You’ll laugh out loud.
All of his products
Are USA made.
Supports all veterans
With a picnic on Memorial Day!
It just makes you smile
When you walk in his shop.
Back to the 50s and 60s
A deja vu stop.
All sorts of wants
All sorts of needs.
Just come and look
Just come and see!
