we are in the essence of time a time that ne'er stands still a time that stands for no one the plants on the window sill time is such like music that moves to the weary beat our hearts are marching onward time will give us that treat We'll move on forward together right to the end of the age and peace and harmony reward us our lifetime time shall gauge

Patricia Ellis (Mum)
Christmas is over and families have gone home The dinner has affected me lying here like a garden gnome The snow is falling round about and lights are on my tree. My band is quiet now and enjoys a break like me There's only all the leftovers that we have to polish off And then the bugs our families left its given me a cough We only have to wait for the brand new year to come That was Christmas 2014 another year is done

How me and my husband met
I am a sheet of music I start quietly building on the quartet of Strings the Violin starts a shimmering sound backed up with the viola the solemn sound of the cello and the ground breaking bass united in harmony There is a rest a break in note I am part of a Symphony an overture out of the heart of the music a quiet roll the timpani building in sound full orchestra building in amazing ****** Fireworks, Percussion, Brass, Woodwind, Strings Combined together in unity performing to the quality levels of sound the amazing Tchaikovsky in 1812 Creativity and Imagination shaking the core of the earth

1812 overture
One fine day on a sandy beach I saw something in the clouds slightly out of reach It was my dreams inside my mind my life in full and intertwined I've traveled near and far away from Liverpool to Cayton Bay I love to see the various sights and when with friends we put the world to rights through rain and hail and sun and snow I can show you where to go now I'm married and acheiving my dream Me and hubby are an expert team He helps me and I Help him when put together we're proper and prim our dream keeps going round and round but at the moment is sound on sound

My Birthday
End of November and Christmas is nearly here It's time for families far and near presents at the base of the tree and children shouting what's for me Brass bands playing round the street gives me goosebumps tapping to the beat Snow is falling all around and the fire is burning bright and lights shine down on my inner soul it just feels really right What could be better than what I have got I've had a crap year but it's Christmas so what! Everything is going really well and I'm going to ring the Christmas Bell

Christmas
The beach lies under the golden sun surf and sand and food and fun getting burnt and feeling fine why not share some sparkling wine a picnic prepared the night before and missing the glass as you pour the day has past its time to go but we do it again if the wind don't blow
