GOODBYE jULY:

GOODBYE JULY:
Well today sees the last day of July,
A month of birthdays in my family.
First on the 4th was my grandson Josh.
Who reached 21 you see.
 
He came into the world 
On America's Independence Day.
What a lovely ocassion that was
I would like to say.
 
Sadly ten days later.
I lost my dearest mum.
Twenty one years later I still miss her
And will do so for years to come.
 
On the twenty third of July
Was my daughter's birthday no less.
Although these days' she's in a wheelchair.
Her attitude puts me to shame I confess.
 
Three days later was her husband's birthday,
Born the same year what fun!
He is such a great help to my daughter,
Since her health problems begun.
 
I hope your month of July was great,
All you hoped it would be.
Here's wishing you a Happy August.
Think I'll take a stroll down to the sea.

  3. July is a mixed bag for you, but a stroll by the sea and fresh air should bring some joy. We got HOT - hit 100F yesterday. Whew! So stay refreshed as we enter the dog days of August summer.

    1. Yes Joanne the stroll by the sea was refreshing after the expectionally hot weather we've had of late. You had it even hotter.....we got to just over 80 degrees.

    1. When birthdays arrive they always tend it be close together,
      May and July are the months here...... with my only daughter and I sharing the same birthday.
