Poems and Thoughts by Frank Maurer
|
Lexington, Massachusetts.When studying at Weeks Junior Highschool (about 1954)In Newton Center, Massachusetts, I was learning French. My teacher was Madam Neufeld, a wonderfully vivacious person. French was my second new language after one year of Latin. I had changed, after advice that the French would better help in a science career. Madam Neufeld lived in Lexington, Massachusetts, where she invited me to visit. I liked her as a sympathetic teacher and accepted her hospitality. I clearly remember going to Lexington Bridge and the Green, Where the Revolutionary 'Shot heard 'round the World' had occurred I also had a very dedicated older, white-haired history teacher, So my visit to the Bridge was ever more meaningful for my young mind. Tomorrow, 19 April (1775), will commemorate The 250th anniversary of the start of the US Revolution. I am glad I have lived so long to see this day and time But I am full of worry and anguish for our present and future, As I am sure they were in those early days of turmoil. |
