At this special time of year
Please spare a thought for the friends not here
the friends we`ve loved
the friends we`ve lost
the ones we`d fight for..
no matter the cost
our friends we fell out with over a silly fight
our friends we used to talk to each and every night
our friends abroad fighting a dumb war
for reasons somehow we`ll never know what for
our friends taken too young all before their time
the ones taken from us,cut down in their prime
they maybe gone from this earth but never from our hearts
so please spare them a thought
for we`re never apart!!
---------------------------------------
Just a rambling reflection as this time of year our thoughts may turn to them...
raise a glass in their glory folks...
they never as far away as u think!!

very touching, fitting words for christmas n new yr....
I don't have close friends who are involved with the forces abroad but the rest of it remin me what I have lost in last two or three weeks alone, or miss
friends who have passed away suddenly, friends who r seriously ill that I can't b nr, family I can't see this yr, a huge blow out wi my best friend who has now deleted me from his life, literally...
I'm sure everyone can find a reflection of some kind in ur words
lovely, thank u xxx |

Truly wonderfull words Zed!
It puts into perspective all this rushing about, buying trash for people we feel we need to, but with no sentiment!
The commercialisation (spelling?) of "Christ"mas has taken away from the sentiments echoed in those words...we all need to stop just for a minute and think/remember/call those close to us and just say hi! the rest will follow. Or stop and remember those no longer here for just a second or three!
I found it particularly hard this year for some reason, when writing the gift tags and addressing to Mum & Dad for Pip's folks and only Mum.. for mine...Buts thats been nearly 5yrs now.
It only takes a wee second to remember....but a lifetime to forget! xx |

Zed,
That is beautiful. Poignant for me as Patch is away himself.
It only takes a moment to stop and think of absent friends, thank you hunni xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
