My almond tree; my world!
No cubby houses in the 1960's
Spent many glorious hours up there; pretending!
I had the best life in the world!
I was a sea otter; carrying rocks up; to crack my almonds!
I was Mowgli in the Jungle Book!
I was Rapunzel; in her amazing tower!
I was a princess; in her fantastic castle!
In the fresh air and sunshine; I was happy to make believe!
My daughter and now; my grandsons
Climb up our imaginary ladders
To find ourselves living out our happy, imaginary existence!
Up in our favourite almond tree!
