Keeping the Memory Alive
You know some people think that as long as your offspring can still remember you living then you are still alive.
I can still remember what great pleasure this man gave to the world & how he improved my life.
I was astonished to learn that he had been one of the earliest teachers at Summerhill School. I mention this as I was fascinated with that method of teaching when I was young & in my prime & at odds with my own teachers.
He has always surprised me & even coming across his book of poetry in a prison library, where he ends each chapter with the number of miles from Glasgow, brought a smile to me even in the most trying times.
