Ann, Mundesley and Me

I stand in the chalet look east and look west

But you are not with me – you have gone to your rest

No longer will we walk to the beach or down the lane

Thankfully my darling you are free of your pain.

I am thankful for the times we shared in this palce

The laughter, the fun one can never replace

I walked the leafy lane from where we could see the sea

I stopped – I turned – there was only me

The sea it shone – such a sparkling hue

Just like your sparkling eyes of blue.

There is an air of quietness about the place

Can it know that you lost the race?

But life must go on that is clear

I have to face to future without fear

The road ahead may be gloomy or again may be bright

But day must be day and night must be night.

The 44 years we spent together are but a drop in the ocean of time

The good times were many, the bad times few – but I must not pine

May you rest in peace with the angels above

Always knowing that on earth Ann – you left masses of love.

They are written from the heart.

Thank you dad for letting me share them & your feelings .
