I looked at my local History site
My Dad's on the world wide web !
If he were here, this new found fame
Might have gone to his head !!
Photos he'd have wanted
With Dad and smiles galore
Well sorry Dad, it's just a small piece
But I promise, they'll be more !
But just now I'm painting his old tray
I wiped it with a duster
And put some paint on -mint green
Next ......... forget-me-nots in clusters
Think that will be tomorrow
This tray will need three coats
Of paint I mixed.......hope I don't run out !
I want his tray on show.
It's been hidden for many years
I never new - Mum said
It was almost forgotten
And was just shoved in the shed.
I can't have that - Dads work of art
The only thing he made
Just has to be in full view
And permanently displayed.
Though where I've not a clue as yet
I'll have to make some space
It won't be easy - I've so much stuff
But Dads tray
will have it's place
