Gone but never, ever forgotten 💕
Those mystic mountains of beautiful Dunblane
As the cattle munch in the meadows on some barley grain
With yon rapid rolling rivulets rippling in the gentle rain
As that big old Mr.Moon melts his wax and wane..
~
Twas a quarter of a century ago as the little children played
In amidst the school yard as those branched boughs swayed
And they giggled and laughed but were never afraid
When the good Lord called seventeen names as their loved ones prayed..
~
God bless all these lovely little school children and their brave teacher Gwen Mayor
And the timelessness of time shall never understand that slayer.
But the sun shines down on all these little Angels as we kneel down in prayer
Gone but never, ever forgotten and rest in peace little Angels in the sweet, Springtime air...

as always
It is 25 yrs ago today the 16 school children age 5 & 6 and their lovely teacher was shot in school classroom as they did PE lesson in quiet lovely Scottish Dunblane :(((
oh no that is sad that happens here
In USA to much
Yes the documentary was on tv last night I and many others cried watching it and their little faces :( xx
Wow JILL!!.....I've never heard of this incident......and I think I'm glad I never heard of it.......It sounds terrible.....so young......my goodness......What a wonderful tribute write/memorial tribute....done with such class and elegant taste in choice of words and phrasing!!.......ALL STARS & PINNED!!......thanx for sharing this!!.......LOVE & ROCKETS!!.......T xo : )
Awww it was really awful poor little souls were in gym lesson when gunman went on rampage :((( Thank you Tony, I realised I had to be so careful what I wrote as so heartbreakingly sensitive :( 💕💙💕
Jill, I remember hearing it in work on the radio and all our hearts sank that tragic day. I think even Tony Blair visited the next day, unheard of a PM to act so quickly and love him or loathe him schools in the UK soon became much more secure. But alas too late for those poor kids and families.
Some things in life we can never forget and shouldn't.
Hang in there Jill and a brave and most respectful heartfelt write.
Yep it was n is sooo sad poor little souls Thanks Shaun 💙💙💙
