For Sheelagh

Created by Jak 5 years ago

Sheelagh, Aunty Sheelagh and Shee

You were different things to us three

Sister, aunt and sister in law

What a wealth of memories we have in store

 

Camping and soirees in darkest Devon

With friends and beer, a little slice of heaven

Kate stealing peanuts before she was three

The eclipse when there really wasn't much to see

 

Down in the Forest I ran my first half

You kindly appeared for support and a laugh

Again you were there when I ran London too

And we finished in Pimlico with a bit of a do

 

Holidays in your camper and us in our van

Including Norfolk to see Sas and Dan

We visited Battle and had fun with bikes

But saw more towns than we went on hikes

 

Near Tintagel we walked by the coast

Took you up and down hills to see Arthur's ghost

Dragons and myths right there by the sea

We definitely earnt that Cornish cream tea

 

We visited Whitby with Jim as the cabby

A boat trip, charity shops, tea and the abbey

Covering the country from Suffolk to Wales

Much fine. wine and games right up to the Dales

 

Weddings and soirees that went on past one

There was always a joke and plenty of fun

Visits to Fareham and a catch up on news

With such a great family there was plenty to choose

 

Warm and friendly with a razor sharp mind

Without a doubt you were one of a kind

Taken too young, it doesn't seem real

And will take a long time for hearts to heal
