Auntie Emilina
Auntie Emilina was a character for sure.
Did I mention she was busy and not very pure?
Fancy lady with exceptional taste.
Delicate, fragile, but not very chaste.
Exotic feathered headbands left behind.
Wearing them after eighty seemed unkind.
Perfume bottle; we all want favorite blue.
With a vibrant green, it speaks to us too.
She liked this one also our cousin says.
Sis climbs out of closet, wearing rhinestone fez.
She would love that! We tell her, knowing Aunt Em.
She was wild, exuberant, witty, crazy, and totally fem!
