The view from Aunt Minnie's window<br /> Looked out on St. Georges Bay<br /> You could see the island of Sandy Point<br /> Even on the cloudiest day<br /> <br /> Aunt Minnie would sit in her chair by the stove<br /> A warm cup of tea in her hand<br /> Spinning old yarns about life long ago<br /> In a way I would understand<br /> <br /> She spoke at length about Sandy Point<br /> Where the people were sturdy but poor<br /> Our family tree had roots she said<br /> On that beautiful sandy shore<br /> <br /> I remember the view from that window<br /> Like it was just yesterday<br /> Now Aunt Minnie's gone but her stories live on<br /> In my heart where there sure to stay<br />   Submitted By: Nancy Crossman
