Vince was twice my age <br />And Frank Sinatra was his rage <br />Sometimes the stars came there to sing <br />Marciano liked this town from the boxing ring <br />Della Reese he played for you <br />Dinah Washington sang the blues <br />Connie Francis and almost Darin <br />Frank Fontaine and Cavalaro <br />Mom said, "Margie, do you always have to be hanging around <br />the Italian guys?" <br />Grandma Mowery thought George was nice <br />But Mom, "It's no beer joint I did protest, <br />The stars go there, Mom, that means it's the best."<br /><br />Marjorie Henderson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/biography-of-a-poet-click-here-to-listen-to-biog/
