Hi, All, Have you seen this before? I enjoy this poem so much that I decided to share. Hope it puts a smile in your day as it does for me. I do not have either a source or an author, but maybe someone will recognize the poem and will have that information. A friend who lives near Birmingham sent this to me. I think she clipped it out of a family history magazine in the UK. If you know source or author, I would appreciate having that information. Thanks and Enjoy! Carolyn in Minnesota, USA COUSIN ROSE I can't resist, I've got to look I know it's time for bed. But Cousin Rose has disappeared I think she might be dead. No, here she is - oh good, I'm wrong, She's living in a house With fourteen daughters, fifteen sons, Four mothers and a spouse. Just one more page before I stop, It's getting far too late. At least I've found old Uncle Jack Once lived in Forest Gate. Eureka! Here they are, Oops no! I don't think these are mine. "Cos Uncle Bill is now Aunt Mill And he's twenty four, not nine! Ah, here he is - but Bill's now Will And living with... my Mum? That can't be right, my cousin Dwight Is showing as their son! Ok, that's it. I have to stop It's driving me insane, A few hours of sleep are all I need Can't wait to start again!
