I heard last night
capt Sir Tom Moore
is hospitalised with covid.
This giving gentle man,
our nations hero, smitten
with this terrible ailment.
A tear falls and my heart
goes out to him and his carers
as I'm sure do so many others
in our nation, his nation.

And now we hear the very sad news of his demise. Was I the only one upon a doorstep at six pm to sound posthumous applause at the behest of our P.M.... i heard no other.
There any out with me either.

Oops - "There weren't any out with me either"
A true write Dusk, and for many other 'innocent' souls.
And now we hear the very sad news of his demise. Was I the only one upon a doorstep at six pm to sound posthumous applause at the behest of our P.M.... i heard no other.
What a sad piece of news Dusk - - most prayerful thoughts are with dear Sir Tom and his carers...........
And now we hear the very sad news of his demise. Was I the only one upon a doorstep at six pm to sound posthumous applause at the behest of our P.M.... i heard no other.
Amen!

I couldn't abide by that 6pm stipulation, sometimes despite our best intentions life gets in the way...
Yet, I consider those mournful thoughts I have had and will continue to - for a few more weeks at least, as my soul: clapping to the beat of my sympathetic heart and in that - at least, I can claim to have celebrated and grieved what this kind person represented, both in life and will certainly continue to represent/inspire in others for as long as we choose to remember.
capt. Sir Tom Moore the epitome: of Dylan Thomas' words
'Do not go gentle into that good night'...
Amen!
So sad too hear your words so true.
hear hear

We clapped - honest.
I pray for all Covid victims and their caretakers.
And now we hear the very sad news of his demise. Was I the only one upon a doorstep at six pm to sound posthumous applause at the behest of our P.M.... i heard no other.
