It is Sue. What I like is that if you tell Mabel you like her poem, then she'll acknowledge you. She seems a lovely woman and a wonderful poet.

Re: Mabel MacRae Anderson poems

Those words are something that I think about every day, but would not know how to express them on paper, Mabel has put it beautifully....Thanks for sharing it Myra.

Re: Mabel MacRae Anderson poems

Another of Mabel's poems.
dear friend

Do you remember...
Rafts on the river,
Made by our brothers,
Running wild in the woods,
Looking after each other,
Do you recall...
On the roof of the byre -
Couldn’t climb any higher,
Cattle grazed on the croft,
As we gazed from aloft,
Was it so long ago...
When we used to walk,
From Caol to the Fort, then all the way back,
Ran barefoot on The Shore,
‘Til we could run no more,
Did you ever believe...
That those days without end,
Would be so short, my friend,
It felt like we would always be,
Capering and dancing on the shore at Loch Linnhe,
It seemed like forever...
Each day a lesson,
Every day a blessing,
In my heart and my soul,
It’s where I will go,
To dance once again,
With You...

Re: Mabel MacRae Anderson poems

Another by Mabel.

Seeing

Moving forward, moving on,
Doesn't mean I've forgotton what's gone,
Will honour the past, but live for today,
Be myself - knowing that's OK,
For all the highs, lows, joys and sorrows,
Make the most of today, and hope for tomorrows,
Lift the dark veil, open my eyes and see,
Appreciate the everyday beauty that surrounds me -
In the eyes and the smile of a beloved one,
In the sea, the sky, the clouds and the sun,
Express my love, know that I'm loved too,
Realise my true potential, let the inner light shine through.
Mabel MacRae Anderson

Re: Mabel MacRae Anderson poems

Lovely poem. Even though I don't know where she is I am
running and playing like I used to do over 50 years ago.
