PLAYING OLD 78s AT THE NURSING HOME

PLAYING OLD 78s AT THE NURSING HOME

Aunt Myrtle
skips a groove from time to time

The needle, still diamond sharp
plays 1952 for a round or two

Then the niceness of the people here
grandpa’s bad temper, and the size
of the long kitchen at the farm

The sweetness of her husband
sometimes here and sometimes gone
and where is he now?

Reminded that he died some years ago
with quick humor still intact, replies
That would explain why he never comes to visit
