True story about my brother.

@FrankWatkinson 2 ай бұрын

The last thing that he gave me was a purple pink flower being held by a wooden flower pot man, he got it from a craft fair the last time he was here, he said hold onto it as long as you can So every evening just as the sun went down I would take out my old watering can , and just like clockwork I would do the rounds paying a bit more attention to that flower pot man. I'd put it in the garden just out of the sun , I thought that would be the better place , he said that would be perfect until the winter comes, then sadness seemed to take over his face. He told me that the doctor's have collectively agreed, the x-rays and the scans have made it clear. The couldn't say exactly just how long I have , but i'm unlikely to see the new year. the summer that year seemed to just fly by before I knew it we were now in the fall . I noticed that the flower wasn't doing too well about the same time that I got the call, Still every evening as the sun went down I would take out my old watering can , I needed to keep that flower alive , I needed to save that flower pot man, I couldn't save that purple pink flower I saw the petals falling one by one, and as I watched the last petal fall I knew that he was gone.

Ich habe Krebs. Meine erste Sorge war, was passiert mit meinen alten Hund. Meine zweite, was mit dem Garten, die dritte was mit dem Zeug von mir passiert. Der Hund ist versorgt, der Garten wächst weiter und mein Zeug verschenke ich. Darf ich das Lied bei meiner Verabschiedung spielen lassen?

This is quietly powerful so thank you Frank. I inherited an Asparagus Fern which was at least 40yrs old and had always thrived in a north-facing conservatory in my childhood home. I rescued it before it hit the skip and brought it to my own home, hoping for another 40yrs from the delicate little fern. Sadly, it didn’t last a year and it was surprisingly painful to have to acknowledge my own incompetence. So this beautiful song has struck a chord. And the guitar playing just wonderful as always ❤❤❤

Do you do this as a coping mechanism, a therapeutic release for these feelings? I have such admiration for your ability to express yourself and also capture the human condition so deeply and accurately. I’m sorry that you carry so much with you, and I truly hope that putting these out helps lighten the load on your back. You seem like a genuinely good man and you deserve to be happy. I hope outside of these glimpses into your pain, you are.
