Through life has been the touch of one so dear as if to plant
A seed of growth into my life by an uncle or an aunt
To introduce them all to you would be quite a large task
Never-the-less I will try to take off each one’s mask
When I was young there was the one who loved to sing and play
She would not sit around and waste the better part of day
How she endured and energized enough to in me plant
That one day I’d need to be like her for she was Resili-Aunt
Then was the one from Italy whose job it was to teach
She was so smart and keen and wise and to me she did reach
How did she know for all she did would in me greatly plant?
No matter where upon this earth, like her I was Import-Aunt
Then of course the faithful one who never missed a trick
She was one to call whene’er a problem was to lick
I watched and gleaned from all the things that ever she did plant
There’s much to learn from this dear one her name is Dilig-Aunt
I’ll ne’er forget the one who introduced me to the LORD
The stories she did tell to me never left me bored
Seed and seeds she did sow and in my heart did plant
Her name to me is dearer now for she is called Serve-Aunt
The last one I have mentioned planted farther than to me
Witnessing to brothers-in-law, she got them all you see
And though they said that it was all “poppycock and bunkle”
In the end they each gave up and all cried out, “UNCLE!”
