My dear Mam and Dad 💕💙

My dear Mam and Dad 💕💙

My Mother always had fresh cut flowers, in a crystal vase upon her sitting room table

I can reminisce her picking them from our pretty floral garden, if they were out blooming and she was able

God bless the pair of them, I can still see my Dad sat in his wheelchair and Mam stood looking at those roses , and that lovely aroma was so sweet

Eeh though that worried, frustrated expression on her little face when she would wheel him back into the house and have to shuffle him onto his supported seat

But then on a cold, chilly winter’s night, the pair of them would be sat next to each other, watching Coronation street, huddled up beside the real, coal fire soaking up that heat...
