Remembrances from 1960
by Ken Homer
The Census
Although I was only three I remember the 1960 census A nice woman came to the door She asked my mom a lot of questions I fleshed out her answers Providing details I felt she glossed over After the woman left I was rewarded with A visit from the hairbrush
The Presidential Election
Who won? I asked my dad The morning after The 1960 election His face fell Kennedy He spat the name More than spoke it Yay! Said me Even at the tender Age of three There was something About Richard Nixon That I didn't like
