Lorna



Today she's off to camp under the Western stars 

She'll wake perhaps on mossy bed

And with the Sun

Have breakfast with some honey on her bread

She is a happy soul at peace

And in her garden some sweet woodruff shines

Her kitchen smells of spice and tea and flowers

Her hair hangs down some silver there entwined

And in cold winter when ice forms

Both her house and her good heart are warm

                A poignant write Lorna. Time does heal, though we know it's not just 'time' in itself - it's other people, support, our faith, etc.

                A beautifully penned scene and sung so invitingly by a favourite song-bird --- thank you for sharing the peace of valued friendship dear Lorna.
