Along the way, I have had four children, and I now have five grandchildren. Being able to write poetry has always been part of that life. It has given me a lot of pleasure, and I have written many poems, although most of which have been lost or discarded along the way, but some stay close, as with Ollie.
I would like to say a big thank you for all the help I have received: to Alan Scarlett, to little Henry whose mum allowed me to use his name for one of my characters. To all those who have read and re-read my early attempts, especially Charlee, Baylee, Georgia, Harry, and Jessica, my grandchildren, who have added their thoughts and comments and to whom this little book is dedicated.view less
