Very well done Trish. For a minute I thought it was something you had seen in Singleton..... ,
Heaven forbid ,


Great work.

The gremlins just stole my reply!! Take II....
Thanks Heather, Sue & David for your replies. The vision of the ninety ?year old man selling poppies really touched a nerve for me!
Thanks Maureen, I had a look at the u-tube clip...really good...and I loved the tune!

Thanks Neville...and "no" it wasn't Singleton! That would have been doubly disgraceful!!

Well done Trisha. A great poem.

Thankyou Mal. I have a soft spot for the old diggers...my dad served in New Guinea and my grandfather who I never met, served in Gallipoli. They were both lucky enough to return home, but have since passed. My grandfather was only 46 I think when he died. Way too young!
