A Beautiful Memory.....

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Jul 27, 2017

"If I close my eyes slowly,
let my thoughts gently drift,
I recall a special couple,
and my aching heart gets a lift,
my Auntie Alice, and Uncle LoL,
forever you will be,
my second Mum, my Father figure,
and such a beautiful memory."
