True Love

My old mate Desmond Carrington broadcasting live from his home in Perthshire, (Radio 2 friday nights) quite often tells me things of great interest.

For instance this love song made famous by Roberta Flack was actually a poem written by Ewan MacColl for his wife Peggy Seeger, ah me, imagine that.

And the moon and the stars were the gifts you gave 
To the dark and endless skies my love..............
