Amazing Maisie
"Amazing Maisie" Marion Agnes Young (Harvey) August 1995
Amazing Maisie
Bright as a daisy
Heavenly blue
Is her favourite hue
Called Baby May
August her month
She boldly dared
When her sisters were scared
Her father a fiddler
A golfer, a fisher
A lover of nature
A mathematician
Her mother a teacher
In Edinburgh town
With tea always ready
With cakes to go round
Dressed so well
In designs of her own
She stunned all her suitors
A band of fine men
Maisie loves nature
With her dad she would roam
Then Roland took over
And built her a home
A good cook was mum
And when we went far
Prepared were the goodies
We liked best of all
At dawn the food ready
To school we would go
Well fed as any
No excuse to be slow
Giving and loving
As kind as they come
We raise our caps high
To an amazing mum
Not very good poetry but I tried. have a wonderful day and a happy "nineties." The sun will shine, the stars too, all the world will glow on your 90th birthday 1995.
Thank you for being you, Love Ann.
