A poem from before my Tullawalla booklets, before I began my blog/website, before I had a computer, before I had a typewriter, and when I wrote my words with a 2HB pencil into a blue line exercise book. I do not have an exact date for the poem, but the piece was probably written during early 2003.
Words for You
A book of words for you
From me
Perhaps not all that true
May be?
They could bring you smile
You’ll see
Some sorrow for a while
That’s me
Dreams and thoughts of you
The inner me
From my mind, it’s what I do
You’ll see

πππ Your poems/words are born from your precious heart. Always share all the feelings…the happy and the sad, etc.,…for in them we can relate and we are helped.

A beautiful tribute, Ivor. In my early days of crossword setting I drew all the grids by hand
