THE SINGER AND THE SONG:

 THE SINGER AND THE SONG:
Above is a photo of me,
When my grandchildren were small.
I loved to descend the slide,
Much to the embarrassment of all.

Sadly those days are now past.
I don't even have contact with them.
I have learned to accept the situation up to a point.
But look forward to when I see them again.

I was browsing UTube the other day.
To establish what songs can  go on my IPhone.
I found a few of Daniel Boy,
That to me were totally unknown.

Then there were songs of
My teenage years.
In the wonderful sixty era.
My, they did bring on some tears.

Then I did a double take.
I came across "America We Are One".
It is sung my a familiar name.
Second name Lewis, first name Yvonne..

I can assure you it is not me.
As I listened to a most stirring sound.
I wonder how many of us
With the name Yvonne Lewis in this world going around.?

  2. Love the photo of you on the slide, that's just the sort of thing I would do WITHOUT the excuse of having grandkids with me!

    My surname is quite common but my first name isn't. Years ago I got acquainted through work with someone else called Eunice and we would sometimes bump into each other in our local Asda - it must have sounded funny to other people if they heard us say ''Hiya Eunice'' ''Oh, hiya Eunice''

  6. You look cute sliding down the slide. Yes, I have found a lady with my name. She's on Face Book and lives in New York, I think. There may be others of course. I've never checked to see.
