My Great Aunt

Sometimes my Aunt and Uncle would visit us I guess my Aunt was close to four hundred pounds If you care about staying in this old world Try not to be in her seat when she sits down! I knew that she'd be there when I got out of school When home I said, "Look Auntie at this A I got!" She said, "Butter my butt and call me a biscuit" That unsettling image still haunts me a lot! All my air came out when she gave me a hug And then I might have tried to run away But with both my feet so far off the ground There just wasn't much I could do or say! When put down, I turned red and ran away I hope she didn't think me heartless or cold You might say a kid should be used to that But at the time I was Seventeen years old!
