Ready for the centre stage,
she's waiting in the wings.
Ready for the glory,
in the flowers that she brings.

Ready for the moment,
she can let her nature flow.
Ready for her debut,
that follows Winter's show.

Ready for her best part,
she gathers green together.
Ready to perform,
the drama of Spring weather.

You are not present in the flesh,
but I know that you are here
A candle flickers on my table.
burning for you, Mother dear.

You gave me life in February,
Cherished me with love, so true.
I had the greatest start in life
and I owe it all to you.

Though I didn’t have you long
and I miss you so each day.
Sweet memories of time we shared,
will never fade away.

Hi everyone. I managed to defrag my files and clean my disks (how technical I sound!) so computer is running faster now, must remember to do this regularly. Hope you are all well.

Ann

Sorry I haven't been on here much just lately but my computer is playing up - feeling its age like me I think! Hope you are all keeping well.

Ann

Hope you all had a great Christmas, I wish I could say I did, but was ill with a tummy bug and couldn't eat anything and had to cancel planned visits to friends. Anyway my woes apart, Happy New Year to you all.

Ann

Just posted Christmas poem on here but seems to have disappeared and I didn't save it in my word processor - oh well, that'll teach me!! Don't know what went wrong though.

I'm feeling more than rough today,
but hope to keep the flu at bay.
I'm going to get my jab tomorrow
and pray the lurgy doesn't follow.

Me throat is sore, me head it aches,
but that won't stop me munching cakes.
But feed a cold is what they say,
so I'm going to stuff my face today.

A nice roast chicken for my dinner
though roasted spuds won't keep me thinner.
An apple crumble for my sweet
plus a king-size bar of chocolate treat.

By then my tum could feel quite dicky
so tomorrow I might pull a sicky!
Then Gaviscon,...

The Red Poppy.


The red poppy is a symbol
in memory of the dead.
Many killed in bloodiest battle,
for whom sad tears are shed.

The red poppy is a symbol,
of their sacrifice, sublime.
They must never be forgotten,
despite the march of time.

The red poppy is a symbol,
of freedom, love and peace.
Wear it with pride and pray,
one day all war will cease.

Good morning all from sunny Bedford, yes it actually is at the moment! Got soaked yesterday, certain people in town seemed very bad-tempered and I nearly got knocked over by an ignorant pig of a man barging past me, shouting that I was taking up all the pavement - I was sheltering from the elements in a shop doorway at the time with several others, struggling to get my umbrella down, with my arthritic fingers. Why he couldn't have gone round me the other side of the pillar or just politely said "excuse me please" beats me! Feel better now after my Sunday moan!

Ann

This is where you see how many guests are on the forum.











This is where I see on twitter how many followers i have.
