The Year Of 1953 Halfway through the year,
of Nineteen Fifty Two.
Five of twelve, in Mama's clan
shared tales like families do.
All of them were married,
to their true love, of course.
They merited love from the parents,
of the great reliable source.
First was Uncle Kenneth
and Vickie his dear wife,
relating to the pleasures
of the greatest time in life.
Second was Uncle Lyle
with Nancy his soul mate.
Anxiously awaiting to hear
the baby's arrival date.
Third was Aunt Rebecca
and Harley her proud lover.
They announced their snuggling,
too often beneath the cover.
Fourth was Uncle Arnett
and Barbara, his new bride.
They were very happy,
staying closely side by side.
Fifth was Kathalene and Allen,
whom I call Mom and Dad.
I really haven't ask them yet
how they got the luck they had.
It took them several months
for the effects to all be seen.
After you hear the outcome
then you'll know, just what I mean.
The year of 1953 arrived and
they all joined in the laughter.
There will be lots of changes,
by late July, or soon thereafter.
In the month of March,
with a smile on Kenneth's face
Vickie started a new trend
the new generation's pace.
On this date: March |
Additional Notes:
Oddly enough there were five of us (grandchildren), of Willie and Eva, born in the year of 1953. Ranging from March
to July
, with each birthday in a different month. We are not all five the oldest or only child of our families. The 1st, 2nd, and 4th child's daddy is one of twelve children and the 3rd and 5th child's mother is one of the same twelve children. This is a very special family to me and I enjoy writing about them. Written just for fun.
