Who is Ruby?
Do you know a girl named Ruby?
Everyone says she’s really groovy.
Her name sounds like the title of a movie,
Or the flavor a great tasty smoothie.
They say that she is very smart,
That she loves to read and study art.
All the kids talk very nice,
I hear them not once, but more than twice.
Who is this very special girl?
She sounds as unique as a pearl.
I pretend I don’t know,
I try to hide my grinning glow.
I am Ruby and they can’t figure it out,
I love what they say and I want to shout!
