OUR DAY...

poem by: Frank Hornby .
Written on Apr 21, 2017

"Was I only dreaming? as I lie here half awake,
I thought I saw your lovely face, or did I make a mistake?
It's the 21st day of April, a special date we both share,
to have your first son on your birthday, surely that must be quite rare.
So Happy birthday! Once more Mum, I always shed a tear,
I look foreward to seeing your lovely face again Mum,
same time, same place,....next year."
