Rene

For telling Brian that they eat
The pudding first in Australia,
For your grace and smiles,
Today my heart's been full of you.

At 95, your stubborn spirit that
Kept you going now seems failing,
A minor triumph that Brian
Managed to feed you a little water.

Snapshots, getting locked in that bathroom
In Bellagio. Our wedding and silver anniversary,
In Lyon, laughing with my Mum,
The Wales-Australia World Cup game

So many stories, a lifetime before 
and since you became my mother-in-law
So hard to see for (the always rather 
grandly named) Irene Evelyn Mary Williams
