Diane was such a kind and loving person. I had some lovely times with you all as a family and I am sorry that I did not manage to tell Diane my thoughts about her before she passed away. Best wishes Claire X

TRANSIENT
Stepping Slowly. Distances are shorter.
Mind musing daily on its store
Of thoughts. Of dreams. Of wishes –
More—of hopes. Some withered
‘Gainst my heart.
Some trying hard to be a part of life
As I go down the hill
Sloping steeper day by day (for time now gallops)
To the edge.
Of leaving here the life I’ve known
And lived and loved. And worn to thread-bare age
Sometimes full of pain and strife
But always full of vibrant life.
And at the end I’ll say:
“Enough.
Twas sometimes ecstasy and dancing
And sometimes tears. Bleak tones of heart-break;
But always it was deep and pulsing life.
I’ll leave the path with love for other joyous feet
As I walk down the hill to unknown destiny.”
