Emma Jean Hears Walt Disney’s Great Plans

Jean whose given name was Emma Jean

Emma Jean who is storyteller supreme

grew up in Missouri with all beautiful things.

Her dad a doctor invented the kidney dialysis machine—

She would go on doctor house calls before

she was a teen.

In fact Emma Jean was only eight years old—

in California–making it grand.

Swinging on the front porch she did hear—

all stories of her mother’s childhood

these are found memories she held so dear
