Dream of Friday
i will miss you this week
but i will dream of friday
when we can do things together
we can go to that party –
that we planned
and i can hold you close
hold your hands
i will miss you this week
and i will dream of friday
it cannot come soon enough
feel your closeness
feel your touch
people do know how i feel
friends, they see it in me
they see the colours
where once i just reflected grey
i will miss you this week
but i will dream of friday
James Garratt – September 2021

Of course! And thank you! Why do you think you’re not sure of anything that you write?

I write a lot, certainly when I was younger, so I am always critical when I reading back. I haven’t read some of my stuff for over twenty years so I am coming back to it as a very different person.
