For Elaine my darling wife- 7.1 1955/5.1.2021.
In memory of just one of so many wonderful adventures together- Appledore, N.Devon England.

We walked along the shore together
Do you remember? The Burrows,
We had it all almost to ourselves.
The wide damp sand, the sea
That house right on the cliffs edge,
All ours for the day.
Everyone else working, but not us
We’re on our hol’s.
Doesn’t take much to make us happy
Just each other really.
You looked so carefree so casual and so in love,
With life, with me.
All I ever wanted was more time
With you
For us.
To live, to breathe, to hope, to walk and keep on walking
Hand in hand never once looking back, with
All the time in the world.


Mark. so beautiful so sad. hope you have got through Christmas and all that as best you can.
