We can talk of beautiful things
But my true joy comes
When my heart sings
At the call of your name
And when you say to me
You would be happiest
With just a picnic blanket
And words of love
My heart concurs
Especially when I consider how hard everyone works
To acquire things
That just seem to me
To stand in the way of true happiness
Please my love,
Always remember
It’s just your heart
That means the most to me
And all the riches man decreed
Mean nothing
If you are not here
Beside me
Helping me to breathe the air
At the end of the day
It is your soul I crave
At the beginning of the end
It will be your touch I will continue to crave
From that parting moment
Into eternity
Yes, yes, your poem plays all my violin strings, I’ve always been a man of simple means…. a picnic is/was a fav’ past time…. and I keep dreaming from here to eternity…..xxx

Really going through all this estate confabulation right now over Mums death is casting things into sharp relief, Ivor. I know for thsoe who loved deeply a simple touch of the loved one’s hand would be the most priceless of gifts. I will never forget that. β€ Hugs to you….
