A Lasting Memory
It was not the sight of a night sky
bejewelled with numerous stars,
nor the whisperings from the waves.
Ann D. Stevenson
About Ann D. Stevenson
Ann D. Stevenson only began writing after she retired, when she joined a Writing for Well-Being course. It was during a difficult time, as her husband had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. She found writing very therapeutic, more especially poetry. It was a real boost to her morale when Family Friend Poems began publishing her poems.
Ann was married for well over 50 years, but sadly is now widowed. However, she is lucky enough to have two happily married children and four grandchildren. She now lives in The Cotswolds in the UK. In the past, Ann has worked as a teacher, helped in a children’s home and spent some time as a PA.

So true. I enjoyed this - well written. Very best wishes, Ann.
I love the lines:
'Without rain, trees cannot grow.
Without rain flowers cannot bloom.'
I'd never thought of it like that before. Thank you.
