Mum, From the day I was born You have always held my hand. The only time you didn’t was When we had to cross the River Torrens And you had to carry me over the swinging bridge ‘the Pasarela’. Your memories I will always hold With me and I will always feel You holding my hand,as I Journey through the rest of my life.
Love you lots Anna
