A liitle poem

17 comments


My lovely Aunt Molly ,who lived to the grand old age of 93 loved her garden and did it herself until she was 86.She had always written poems and when she died ,my cousin sent me this …. I have a little garden and i weed it every day. I water all my pretty flowers and throw the weeds away.And though the flowers are rather scarce, of weeds there is no lack.For when I’m fast asleep in bed, they all come creeping back. And this is most annoying, for as anyone will tell, they don’t come back by themselves, they bring their friends as well……….How very true!

Thanks so much for your comments Tulsalady,Grandmage and Terra. She was a lovely lady and she would have been pleased that she made someone smile. Thanks Elizabeth, she had a great sense of humour and was always giggling.She sometimes came to stay with us and my hubby really used to make her laugh.She also wrote a long poem about her life when she, my mum and all the rest of the sisters and brothers(10 altogether) were young and I was also sent this. Perhaps I should put this on as well.

I could never be a poet as we can see you need to be very observant. I can see it all when someone puts it on paper. You were very lucky to have such a wonderful aunt. I'd love to read her other poem too. You can add it to this blog?

Maybe one at a time. Keep us in suspense as to where it is going. Do you have to type it all in or can you scan it?
