poem; Jenny and Sarah and Liam.

I am thinking about you today,
As always, since you went away.
I am wishing I could capture,
Those far off times, what rapture!
I am thinking, which memory
To erect, from all the others,
And of course Liam, your brother.
"I want to come to your house
To stay, it's all boring here,"
Jenny would say.
And you all brought such joy
To Granddad's and I heart,
Right from the start.
I am thinking about you today,
How, when I was at work
Next door, you would dust
And hoover the floor.
We would walk down to the weir,
Where you paddled with such
Delight, in those far off days.
I am recalling today,
When I met you three in town
And we went to the café to
Have a quick snack, Liam said,
"I like a cream cake just like my dad,"
Which he always had.
Sarah wanted a baked potato
With cheese and would ask,"Plenty
Of that, please."
Jenny always chose a sausage roll,
And told the assistant, "A big one please."
And Oh! those times when we went in
The shops, to buy shoes,
And after looking in vain, you
Chose the same!
Do you remember the saga,
Of the cucumber you were supposed
To take home, you broke it in half
And gobbled it down, before
We got to town!
I remember with pride, how good
You were, after you arrived,
And I wish that I could go back
In time, when life was so fine.
