#4 ~ Scribblings of Freya

Over-arching Summer boughs all now cut and gone

Echoing the dreams of WI women singing Jerusalem

Farewell to flower arrangements, jam and cake

Fierce competition, cricket teas and double-face.

Your fulsome, blousy, heady dreams of youth now gone

Bracts faded purple, grey and green where life once shone

Farewell to possibilities, a life so full of youthful grace

A face time worn, and yet ready still, to stand another dawn.

A season of life, and love and time 

a never ending paradigm.
