I know we're hardly upon the Christmas holiday, not even having gotten to Halloween, but I came across this poem. I remember reading this a few years back when I was doing research for the two history books but could never find it again. Well, I did. It happened to be in my Rotary notebook from when I was the President during the 2003-04 year.
Not sure when this poem was originally published in the Fowlerville News and Views but I'm guessing in the 1960s from the people and stores mentioned. Anyone care to comment?

Based on the mention of Keesler's and Schade's, I'd say very late 60s or early 70s for when it was written. There was a Sefton family at that time that lived at the NE corner of Hale and South Grand. I don't know if it was the same family.
