This is the first collection of poems that my great grandma wrote, I never knew her, she passed before I was born. There are two booklets of poems that she authored, the second of which is dated 1995, I believe the first was printed a couple of years before. Below is the foreword to the second book.
    
    "For a number of years I have been scribbling down my thoughts and feelings in verse.
    
    After several operations over the years and recent major surgery I decided to have these poems printed in a small booklet and sell them to make a contribution to Staunton Harold Hospice and Ashby Cottage Hospital.
    
    So with the help and encouragement of Moira Replan, I went ahead, with the hope that this second edition will sell as well as the first."

    The original dedication was to Mavis and Eileen. She also drew artwork for the front covers of the two booklets that I may include in a later edition.
    
    The booklets were discovered in the attic and I wanted to do something with them, so here they are digitally with almost no modification. Poetry interests me and I hope to produce some of my work like she did in a book in the future.
    
    I hope you enjoy.
