I Remember Nico

When I was just a little boy, I had a favorite show;

It was on TV every Friday night, and my face would be aglow!

It was sponsored by the coffee “Maxwell House”, always “Good to the very last drop”;

The kids were Katrina, Hans and Dagmar, with their Mama and their Pop!

I had a crush on little Dagmar, with her two long golden braids;

In dreams at night she was my girlfriend, and some kisses we would trade!

But now that sixty plus years have passed, I have created a brand new show;

It will be nostalgia filled and beautiful; I aptly now have named it “I Remember Nico”!

I’ve called it that for he was “one of a kind”, so truly unforgettable;

Each week will tell of his treasured life, those I shared with him so full!

He was gentle, kind, with a loving heart, he’d give you the sweater off his back;

And when it came to making lots of friends, Nico surely had a knack!

I sent some scripts to Hollywood, and got a quick reply;

They said that they were interested, so out there I shall fly!

I hope within six months from now, on Friday nights at eight;

You’ll watch the new series “I Remember Nico”, and you’ll think it’s really great!
