The Sound of Music

The first time I ever saw "The Sound of music"
Was many years ago after Tim explained how
He had seen it many times as a child
It was a favourite of Nana Lindy's
She loved to sing along to all the songs
She loved her records: the 78's: old classics
Operas and especially Madam Butterfly
We watched it again tonight: with Evaleah
She is only ten months of age but she loved it too!
What a terrible time to be living in
War and destruction: no escape from that
It was such a beautiful film: the scenery
The story of a precious family: brought back
To happiness by love: it was a pleasure to see it
It was a pleasure to share it with my daughter
And with my beautiful grand-daughter!
