I Dreamt of My Mum Last Night – Written Tuesday 17th January 2012 (Aged 36)

I Dreamt of My Mum Last Night

there is a car crash
and we do not understand
a plane, comes in to undertake –
an emergency landing
we watch
as it comes in to land

we are shattered –
and we do not know what to say
there is a will
but is there a way?
i dreamt of my mum last night
and unlike before
i did not feel afraid
a life where a high price was paid

i dreamt of my mum last night
she was alive
she was well
but i was a viewer, a narrator –
with the saddest story to tell
but still,
there is comfort




James Garratt – Tuesday 17th January 2012
