We'll meet again
Don't know where, don't know when
But I know we'll meet again... some sunny day...........
As we prepare to lay
To rest our heroine
Vera Lynn
Lets realise hers and my wish of the poem yesterday once more....
Let us reopen the door
To the mantra of all embracing,
Self effacing
Human solidarity
Not a... I love me...
Who do you love personage,
Vera did that....
A singing coach sneered under her hat
Your voice is not for me
So Vera took the opportunity
To prove her wrong
And the song
We'll Meet Again
When
Heard by all and sundry
Whatever the country
Lifts your spirits
Her voice, the lyrics
Blend into one,
In perfect harmony
So must we seize the same opportunity
In front of us and do her proud....
Shout aloud
Thank you Vera Lynn
For guiding
Us to treat everyone as an equal and work together
Never
Being unbelieving of our individual talents
But instead using them as instruments
To help other too
To share theirs to make the world better for everyone, not just the.... few

A follow up to YESTERDAY ONCE MORE on my bequest of a word or subject from Fraser Harper. Dame Vera Lynns passing seemed a fitting cross reference to the wish for more harmony and less self centred actions.
