Minerva

Lester Heritage
Mickleton MM

Well, today is the day, that exciting day!

The day you have been waiting for all year.

Happy birthday, Minerva, and I want to wish you the best,

And I’m sure that goes for everyone here.

 

So I’ll say Happy birthday! again

And hope you will have many more.

We have all been told that you will never grow old.

We all know you are just thirty-four.


[Lester’s poem was read during a celebration of Minerva Ward’s life at Mickleton MM on 9/2/2007, on the occasion of her 82nd birthday. Thanks to Peggy Ward for the photo of Minerva (standing) with John and Alice Glass at the potluck lunch following the celebration at the meetinghouse—ED.]
