Sprouted forth, full of life,
the girl of Castle Hills,
who both in love, and in strife,
made up all the thrills,
by being mother, and a lover,
healer of the woes,
nothing cannot smother,
a shining Gainsborough Rose.
Her four, play sweet music,
much to her delight,
her smile’s therapeutic,
dousing any fight,
in customary fashion,
she’d wipe away the lows,
a lady of compassion,
this shining Gainsborough Rose.
Kind witch, at Halloween,
cast her friendly spell,
of which, I have seen,
means that all was well,
devotion’s strengthened meaning,
from her head to her toes,
our world should be dreaming,
of shining Gainsborough Rose.
So sad to see, such a light,
be put in the shade,
still so much to put right,
by lovingness displayed,
but whenever you are angry,
watch flower; that re-grows,
embrace a happy memory,
from shining Gainsborough Rose.

- Comment from author about the poem: Again, I'm sorry due to my lack of presence on here, but in terms of my health, it has been another rough few weeks, and many follow up appointments have had to be attended to. Anyway, to make things worse, a few days ago, a very kind and caring lady lost her life, as a result of her being run down accidently, by an elderly driver in a supermarket carpark. She was the mother of one of my bandmates, and I, and my family, have had the pleasure in sharing in some wonderful moments with her, as have so many others. With this, I felt compelled to write this, as a homage and memorial to her, she will be sorely missed by so many, and my family and I are thinking of her and the Macandrews, at what is such a horrible time. xxx Rest in Peace Rose xxx
