Poem . The places where we used to go. Ref 021
Written 1/10/2018. Nelson Park Alex Headland
The places where we used to go.
Hello my Darling I walked with you today
Every bench seat reminds me where we sat
Perchance to make contact with you again
Lingering thoughts of how we lived and loved
And how Nelson Park was our target walk
Circuit of just two Kilometres with a lake
Every step a memory of my darling girl.
So today I walked with you , my eyes not dry
Wind light and breezy in dappled sunlight
Happy people walk their dogs not knowing
Endeavouring to hold back the tears a while
Reaching solitudes I cry. As I recognise
Every vista you and I enjoyed can I reconcile
We had those six years together in a paradise
Eventually I guess one of us may die ?
Unless we’d manage to live forever oh we tried
So now I walk the park alone the ducks know
Each one sends a greeting asking how you are
Dutifully I tell them Barbies now in heaven
Today and every day my babies out of Pain.
Oh Barbara I miss you so. Send me your sign
Glory be the day we met n made me so happy
Of promises made daily. Our love will never die
