On a sandy ridge overlooking Koh Lak beach
Not far from were they do the Memorial speech
We built a rock garden, well, white coral piles
that we sourced from beaches within miles
Planted Palms and Bougainvilla
that we hope will stand out like a pillar,
of colour, white, pink and mauve,
with our planting we strove,
to give a natural, unfussy feel
But that to people seems to appeal
Because now when we go
they're taking photo's, like its a show
So, watering, now's early doors
or after sunset when back to their Hotels they pour
Now we've added our Spirit-House that we bought
All the bits, Mama, Papa, the cow, everything we ought.
Exotic flowers and ribbons hang around,
pinks, whites and all abound!

She'd love it.





To Sarah with a little nod to the "streets" and all whose heart still gently weeps.....

She never went to church on Sunday, never felt inclined
Rather be round our house, with her mates reclined
Till 1or 2, when 3 or 4 of you would start to stir
Sniff the air, traces of eggy-bacon would make you purr
Dada, Dada be a good man get back on that frying pan
But,! Girls you all want to be slim, I'd say
Oh, no Dada not today
then you'd sloop about like something out of Baby Jane
those beauties from the night before, feeling the morning after pain
But, How we loved her, loved collectively, a group, a gang
Everything around her went with a bang!
Clubs , were the chapel Fashion was the church.
A kind of High Mass from which you all would lerch
But, work hard, play hard was the motto
and to me you were all top-po
a pearl
We miss you girl!!!!!!!





Never, is a long time not to see somebody, Never!
If you loved them so much and will love them for ever
Eternity! what does it mean?
I suppose that'll have to wait to be seen.
I haven't got any feedback so far.
It's as there’s an invisible bar!
Is there a medicine to take away this pain?
So young, with so much to gain
Career, new flat and Baby
God is good! Hey! Maybe
For some, but I just can't understand
Why he had to break up our merry band.
