Great Grandma Goes Viral
by Deniz22
Someone found and published Great Grandma’s diary, now it seems family history was a bit more than miry. An Uncle once thought of as the sterling type, Apparently benefited from unwarranted hype. Also a number of other limbs on the old family tree, Might have been grafted in too; and that illegally. Things were “hush-hush”, decorum was maintained, This though the main participants oft felt strained. A cousin or two, when embarrassed to be in a family way, Would “vacation” for 6 months and then have a give-away. Suddenly, an Aunt, quite unexpectedly, would have a new face, At the breakfast table, partaking fully, in the morning grace. Each family member got a copy of these facts long hidden, And each and every member to a family reunion is bidden. It may not be the same as last year’s rather dull affair, But you can bet your bottom dollar, everyone will be there. |
