On a remote, desolate Scottish hillside, a climber lays trapped under a boulder. A simple decision to turn left rather than right has devastating consequences for the rest of her life. On her journey of recovery, she makes the most unbearably tough...
I realised that I may have forgotten someone very important in my life in my blogs who I absolutely take for granted..... so I thought I would post a poem and hope he likes it!
I may have forgotten you again
We just sort of take you for granted
Like when we forgot to tell you we were getting a cat... before we got one
So when I didn't write about you in my blog,
It wasn't because I didn't care
Or notice all the things you do day in and day out
It's that I always just sort of expect you to be there
Waiting to pick me up in your car as I chat to my mates
Walking Mum's mad dog – a task we all dread
The crap job of cleaning the commode
And pushing the wheelchair up impossible hills til you're pretty much dead
The coffee that magically appears by my side in the morning
Or the perfectly buttered crumpets or toast
The hours of looking for what I've dropped under my bed
You're not such a bad dad I suppose
Lest we forgot what you do for Greenford and Ealing
No one is more deserving of mayoralship than you
From sorting out bins, benefits and other people's problems, among others
Well we're all well proud to be true
You may watch football – well we've all got flaws
And I may forget to tell you I love you – well I do have mine too
See to me, you're my dad – a word that means so many things
But the one thing I know first: I know I always have you.
