I remember the times we had the love between us a dad and his son fooling around and having fun the football games in the hall the family holidays the time we got stuck in the snow family holidays in Scarborough playing football with the club playing football in the hall with a spongy ball a bust old door for a goal Christmas’s at my aunties playing Pictionary the parents were really competitive them times have passed now and I know it will never be the same dads died and I can’t change that but every hour of everyday adds a memory to the times we had.
this was the first poem I had ever really written (2004 in my first year of GCSE's), it was on a poetry day at school and a select few pupils were allowed to take part and I was chosen even though I shouldn't have been. To this day though. I don't think without this experience and push to express myself I would have ever written poetry.
