Dad



That timeless picture hanging 
Behind our homestead entrance door
Harking back to olden days
No carpets on the flagstone floor
All sat together by one fireplace 
Home service BBC
Three jumpers and a cardigan
The outside loo and freezing pee
You couldn’t sit there whingeing 
Things could be worse by far
“So lick your plate be glad you ate
Take the jug I need a jar”
