My Wife Mary

A life of joy
I was by her side for 37 years
I met her at a dance at North Connel
Peter told me that his sister had no suitor

Mary was an analyst
She made drugs from seaweed
Soon after we met she developed MS

At 52 she went into a Nursing Home
For 4 years and 8 months
I saw her twice a day

  1. This was once again written by Alan Campbell. It is so poignant and as it develops it brings a tear to your eye. Some people have so much misfortune and we shouldn't complain if we are moaning about nothing (like the weather).
