Think of Me

Think of me, for I was here I ran, I jumped, lived life, no fear I never liked to go to school That didn’t mean I was any fool Many a time, I laughed and played My sister, my brother, friends I made We used to fight, jump up and down Like a happy, likeable, lovable clown Good times I had, chatting to you all A swim in the Luggie, in rivers I’d fall Fun and games with cousins in summer Apples from a tree, then doing a runner Mum and Dad were always there In different ways, they’d show they care To ‘ma’ I’d shout ‘where’s the toast and cheese’ She’d always make it, just as I please Life moved on, my challenges were many Love at my side, worth more than every penny Thanks to you all, love to everyone By your side forever, I’m never really gone

I like this rhyme Barbara, it reminds me of my childhood, school and rivers and apple orchards fleeing with all my might. when I got caught one time I gave the owner such a fright. I threw up on his boots. Haa he shouldn't have caught me!
