birthday ode by Pam Bayliss


Here is My Touching Birthday Ode

with a stunning illustration by Esther Harris


The House of the 'summer of strange'
Where the visitors constantly changed
But Love/Laughter was strong
And you let me belong
You made light of the work to arrange.


My stay in your home was a joy.
And I DID meet the nicest cute boy!
Plus the food was good too
It's a LOT to your due,
That it's cooking for Tom I enjoy.


Happy Birthday, We Love You!
BIG HUGS, Pam and Tom

I love Aunt Esther's picture of Little Compton! I've been reminiscing about LC since Lucy put up the post with the goat picture. The well where the goat hung itself is there in Aunt Es's drawing! I have many happy memories of the time cousin Pam spent with us when she was working at Abraham Manchester's and Tom Bayliss was courting her.
