~Happy Mother's Day to all our Mothers~
From South Carolina swamp country,
Okay…onward through the fog...the genetic Lee look.
Part I: "You must be jesting, my friend..."
Mamma had 'the look' badbadbad,
Aunt B has it, Sansan...her bro.
Joel...his Mom and my Sis, Little Red,...
J.C.'s son too, of course.
'The Lee Look' gets all of us in trouble
A few of us have even been sent typed letters...
And, to set the record straight right now,
It does not help the situation
Further, we are practical, independent, brave,
To our family’s good credit,
But, unfortunately, 'The Lee Look', has yet
Distinct in nature also,
~~~thebaglady has spoken~~~
my family, the Lees, are
a family of matriarchs.
(However, the infamous genetic Lee look is
patricidal in origin.)
First, it’s usually but not always blue-eyed.
There is no exact description I can give you
because
it comes in parts.
Part II: angry and/or haughty
Part III: overly cerebral
Part IV: "I beg your pardon..."
Part V: "Don’t mess with me, Buddyrow...
(And I don’t want to have to tell you that twice)
And, ultimately:
Parr VI: "If I live,(and I will),
You pay for this forever..."
~That’s the Lee Look~
Her Daddy could set a fire with a sideways glance...
(spoiled brat...only child syndrome).
Greatgranddaddy Rome.
Uncle D...his gurlsssssssss.
J.C. had it like Mamma.
My uncles namesake, DC, (La Basteure...)
(my browneyed babyboy)...has it.
Blackflag can fry an egg with his. (My firstborn).
(don’t ask her anything two times,please)
(unless you're on your knees)
(or have a fever over 104 degrees...).
And, Lord, he's got red hair too.
Then, Aunt P,
Michellemybelle, her brother,
Noelle...Yours Truly...
(A…hemmm...thebaglady).
(Oh, SirBob too. Yep.)
The apple does not fall far from the tree.
sooner or later, all our lives...
especially blue-eyed Lees, who seem
to have a double-dose of this genetic happenstance.
about this 'Look.'...
One of us is emailed about it
fairly regularly...
Will name no names, Fam...
Grandma Lee did not have the 'Lee' look.
She had other ways she struggled through life.
She could never do one thing with
her unruly offspring.
Ohhhhhhhhhh...Grandma would like that line,Beloved.
I am sorry to report,
that Lees (males and females) are
slow to forgive, secretive,
stretchers-of-the-truth...
We never forget a slight, and
are born indignant, possessive and tormented.
arrogant, circuitous, devious, oblique, proud...
headstrong, high-strung, and territorial...
to a fault.
thus balancing the books somewhat,
we are
steadfast, interesting, cheerful, charming,
caretaking, intelligent, sensual, talented,
stoic, diplomatic, skilled, hale, loyal,
hardworking, dependable, and fashionable.
another dire, encumbering aspect...
It is almost always accompanied by
‘THE LEE NOSE’ !!!!!
this haughtily-structured beezer...
But hey, enough Lee for one reading !
Come back and read more baglady another time.
No, SanSan, I will not write about 'THE LEE EYEBROW' !!!
‘MIB’….(Message in Bottle):
A Lee a Day keeps the termites at bay…
Guess that's all I've got in me tonight.
Happy Mother's Day, Mamma.
