Excerpt
Prelude - Time
In an unguarded moment
it felt like it was raining roses
then they cut me
Thorndale
Bandon, West Cork, Ireland 1956
I watch her as she moves about the room, pride in every step, and elegance in every turn and my heart stirs. I devour her as she dances around the floor light as a butterfly’s wing and my soul smiles at the wonder of her. When she laughs my heart giggles. She is so very beautiful. I cannot see a lot of him in her. Yet at times, I can visualise him in her expressions, especially when she is displeased, as I would not describe him as having a sunny disposition. She has mannerisms unique to her, flamboyant and expressive hand movements come naturally to her. She is going to be an artiste or artist of some sort; her situation has allowed her imaginative and creative side to flourish. She loves to draw and play fancy dress; she is able to add drama to any situation. I have seen her summon her maid to the castle she has made out of her bedclothes. A little madam, but oh so sweet with it, I love her so much but have to let her go. It is now time, I must prove my love for her by losing her. I am going to miss her so. This place is too dark for her; she is too young a soul to act so old. Nanny has done the very best she can in bad circumstances.
Ah, she has jumped up. What caught her attention? Of course, he is on his way, no matter what he does or says she will always love him.
Long ago, I used to feel the same for him. How things and people change over time. I will always watch her.
