My Great Aunt Elizabeth Poem by Raymond Farrell
My Great Aunt Elizabeth
My great aunt Lizzy
Remembered reading about
The Battle of Little Bighorn
In the newspaper
When she was ten
Said it caused
Quite a stir
She was never sick
Hardly a day in her life
Died quietly in her sleep
In 1971
Having seen a man
Land on the moon
In 1969
To be able
To see
Such change
And development
In one life span
Is impressive.

I don't think we appreciate the developments of our own lifetimes. (I used a rotary phone until I was in my 20s) : -)
