Yellow Wallpaper

Today
I see it clearly
The bedroom

Yellow wallpaper

huge flowers shared
With a sister or two
when the youth of a life
Was the all we all knew
I can still see the hearts 
that we drew on the wall
And mam slapped us too
Yes, I still do recall
and in case I don't say 
Because time fades the bloom
Know my memory hangs out 
in our old childhood room

often...

I entertained the idea your accent sounded like you were from East enders, but 'Mammy'? Now I think you sound Scottish.

Yellow wall paper. It holds memories but not only that it holds the essence of who you actually are. These words paint such a picture. Many will relate tovthis because we all have memories of yellow wallpaper ... just in different colours xx

Here you have demonstrated and so clearly, the need that so many of us secretly have to hang on to those halcyon day of yore .. simply but beautifully crafted and scripted .. x
