I remember holidays as a kid.
On Easter our baskets, filled with candy, eggs
Were hid in our house.
We enjoyed hunting and finding them.
On the fourth of July,
We saw a parade and fireworks.
On Halloween we dressed up, went trick-or-treating
I enjoyed being a witch.
On Thanksgiving my mom was busy.
She made parker house rolls and several pies.
We ate a big meal with turkey, dressing,
Potatoes and gravy and cabbage salad.
Christmas time was sure fun.
We got to shop at a few stores
And bought a gift for $10.00
For a family member.
We always had a real tree.
I helped decorate it.
We looked at pretty lights in our area.
We received gifts like games, coloring books.
