rose once grew
where all could see,
sheltered beside
a garden wall,
And as the days passed
swiftly by,
it spread its branches, straight and tall...
One day, a beam of light
shone through
a crevice that had
opened wide ~
The rose bent gently
toward its warmth
then passed beyond
to the other side
Now, you who deeply
feel its loss,
be comforted ~ the rose blooms there ~
its beauty even greater now,
nurtured by
God's own loving care.

CRAIG, THE ANGEL XXX
My sons were bikers, started off with park bikes, TS250's when they were aged 9 & 11. It was ok to learn on, and once we had a KTM, but the Motoplat burned out and nobody in this village had a spare. Nobody knew what a Motoplat even was!!!
Nobody had heard of a KTM to get it going.
We then learned and got cheap crap, plenty of spares, old Yami's, old Suzi's, old Kwackers. We lived for and loved our bikes, my boys and me, that was our main hobby. Chris was ACE on a stunt bike, he stunned me with his ability.
cant beleive its been so long, think about u everytime i see a bike, or drive past that road.... you are still missed as much as you were.
gone so fast these years. remember finding out you'd gone. You are still missed as much as that day. God Bless Abbott xx
