Sister in the USA

January 11, 2008 1:53 PM

12 bar autobiography. From that classroom in Stockholm. Every word is true. But the harp is in a minor key.

A couple of years ago I located my long lost sister - Claire. She lives in Nevada now. She disappeared from my life way back in 1945 together with mum.
Wartime England was like that.
Claire was completely unaware of the existence of two brothers in England. Well now one of us is in Sweden and the other (David) constantly on the move between La Gomera, Kent (UK), Brussels and Porto Santo.

The power of the Net.

This is a song for Claire.

Hey, right on! Way to bring the blues, man. Thanks for the song and congrats on finding your Mum and Sis!

Thanks Rancher,
Sis was great fun. Mum is now only in the form of small yellowed photos. First ones I ever saw./jan
