Pardon the Poem


Tomorrow will come and we must go
Board a ferry, and west we row.

The Prince has been most kind to give
A week on his land for us to live.

Anne was also sweet and dear
The Haunted Woods we did not fear.

On Shining Waters we didn’t float
But dug the beaches on which she wrote.

White sand, red sand, it didn’t matter
Blanket picnics for the sun to flatter.

To rival beaches for our time
COWS ice cream – did just fine.

Charlotte has a beautiful town
The park by the bay was for us it’s crown.

Then on to Rick’s Fish and Chips
Remembering makes one lick his lips.

The market, bridge, church and pool
Memories of which are sweet and cool.

But more than those; are hanging out
With friends that you have brought about.

Our gracious and excited host,
To Miss Bredin we propose a toast.

She lifted us up with her laugh
Danny gets the nod; her other half.

 The joys of friends new and old
Our deepest blessing, truth be told.

It’s sad to think and makes us grieve
This little island that we leave.

There’s more to come for you to show
Of yourself, our hearts to know.

  1. I love this post! I am so glad that two of my funniest friends who happen to be married and happen to have the sweetest cutest kids ever...came to my favorite places with me!I wish I could have had more time and that we could have explored Halifax together! Man. I can't even explain how happy I am that I got to have this sweet treasure of being in every day life with your family, even if it was only for a week. and to all the friends from Sexsmith who read this blog too, I am sure you are missing them! I can't wait to meet you all someday! They missed you and talk about you lots!
