Just wanna share this poems by Lady Kathleen which really touched my heart...
I
Oldest memories of a time long ago
I thought was just a dream set aglow.
I thought was just a dream set aglow.
Water surrounds the world I see
and it was closing in on me.
and it was closing in on me.
The red of blood through waters deep
draw closer now with no sound to speak.
draw closer now with no sound to speak.
A symbol now is what does reveal and spark
A wavy shape, I see, of two white crossed marks.
A wavy shape, I see, of two white crossed marks.
II
If not a dream, then what memory
And what does this memory mean?
And what does this memory mean?
The truth be known in later years
That it was a memory with tears.
That it was a memory with tears.
My oldest memories that haunts me to this day
Is of a time where death called but I got away.
Is of a time where death called but I got away.
For I fell into a pool as a young baby of three
And to the bottom sinking down soft and free.
And to the bottom sinking down soft and free.
As a gallant man jumped in to save the young lass
And he wore swimming trunks of red with white crosses
And he wore swimming trunks of red with white crosses
A thing that was in my mind now and then
that would haunt me for all time and again.
that would haunt me for all time and again.
