Nothing Happened To Me - In 1953

Nothing Happened To Me – In 1953

     Nothing significant happened to me
     In nineteen hundred and fifty three.

     And the reason for that is, I am sure,
     I was born in nineteen hundred and fifty four.

Thank you, Andrea. I was actually born in 1946 but could not find a rhyme for that date. // Barry

Idea is great. Really enjoyed. You can revise the poem as : Nothing significant happened to me in Nineteen Hundred and Forty Three: 'Cause, my birthday God had to fix in the year Nineteen Forty Six. Warm Wishes

This is cute and clever, Barry. I feel exactly the same way about 1951; I was born in 1952! :-) Janice

Thank you very much, Janice. I was actually born in 1946 but I could not make the rhyme work with that date. // Barry
