A little story about my precious family

My Family

by NanaGaye

My first child Brenda was born in1960

Named after the pop singer Brenda Lee

Fourteen months later along came John

Born on New Year’s Day 1962

I had a bit of a breather then

With placid Bruce arriving

On the 15th January1965

Another three years passed

And spoiled baby Paul

Joined our family in 1968

I did have a busy time

But a happy time

They are all grown up now

With children of their own

And I love them all




Free Form Poetry Contest contest entry


It's just about closing time for the contest, couldn't find a picture of my four children so I chose one of placid Bruce. A memory that comes to mind is after feeding his younger brother I was concerned where Bruce was. I found him curled up a sleep in front of our clothes dryer.
