My grand dad had this very long poem? he would recite. It lasted at least 8-10 minutes. He died before I was mature enough to know I needed to write or record it. None of my cousins remember what it was about or even if it was a poem or whatever. I regret not having smarter cousins. Dang it i

“There once was a man from Nantucket,
Who kept all of his cash in a bucket,
But his daughter, named Nan,
Ran away with a man,
And as for the bucket, Nantucket.”
