Two Stars shining brightly above
Two Stars shining with gods love
Two Stars related by birth Oskar and Ted my beloved Grandsons
Missed very much by your Mummy and Daddy on earth
We did not get to hold you and whisper your name
We did not get to watch you run rings around your brother and call his name
We did not get to be proud Grandparents and watch you grow
But  Two Stars came and shone one day the result is one that did remain,  now Alfie has an earth brother Roman's his name
Two Stars your family still think of you dearly and cherish your memory
We wish we could have held you and kept you in our care
All we asked was for God to love you until one day we can all be there
Your life on earth was short and brief but  Two Stars you shine on in our memories

I hate winter
It gets cold
No foothold
Unpredictable
unreliable
miserable.

I hate winter
It gives you
Huge energy bills
Cracked lips
Broken Hips
icy nose tips.

I hate winter
Full of things like
Snow shoveling
sliding
Car crashing
Plenty eating
Sick feeling
people freezing
double clothing.
