Way back when I was younger and had pigtails and red patent shoes, every Boxing Day my family would gather and amidst masks and ivy and wine would play act and tell stories. One year my Grandmother and Grandfather acted out with much ad-libbing this poem. Reading it back now, it brings back so many memories.Erinyshttp://harpysnest.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3878753035017181139.post-55567595660217865822012-10-28T07:39:23.949-07:002012-10-28T07:39:23.949-07:00That was wonderful!
