A Lifetime - Day by Day: Five Women and Their Diaries - Middle Age

Listen to poem:
Illinois, Winter of 1920 Fair crystal-like turquoise crowns o'er heartland while townsfolk are quite briefed on purchasing, for those who dressed warmly had only planned, meant shopping, browsing, eat-out ere praying. While townsfolk are quite briefed on purchasing, comparing, what's-in, plus what's-not, prattling, meant shopping, browsing, eat-out ere praying, stained-glass color-filled lights, and choir singing. Comparing, what's-in, plus what's-not, prattling, whilst child-filled dreams on pews awaiting toys, stained-glass color-filled lights, and choir singing trained their soprano voice from youthful boys. Whilst child-filled dreams on pews awaiting toys, countenance donning smiles midst fellow poise, trained their soprano voice from youthful boys, stretched course nineteen-twenty cores Illinois. Countenance donning smiles midst fellow poise, frequents childhood thoughts freshly occasions, stretched course nineteen-twenty cores Illinois, precedes squandered Asians, midst Caucasians. Frequents childhood thoughts freshly occasions, changed Santa and elf wrapped presents then hid, precedes squandered Asians, midst Caucasians, sung winter songs nigh ice pond where'd we skid. Changed Santa and elf wrapped presents then hid, blinking light-hues rounds decked-out scented tree, sung winter songs nigh ice pond where'd we skid, Santa plus elf served glazed doughnuts and tea. Blinking light-hues rounds decked-out scented tree, for those who dressed warmly had only planned, Santa plus elf served glazed doughnuts and tea, fair crystal-like turquoise crowns o'er heartland. 2020 December 18
