Gentle blows the wind
Warm like well-seasoned wine
Clouds sail over head
I am glad I got out of bed
I sit and watch the clouds
Wonder if it will shower
While I drink my tea
At platform edge
Memories hold my attention
Bring bright memories to my head
Muse about long ago
From a world that once was slow
Train journeys
The Wensleydale steam train
Was once a life line
For people in the high dale
To meet and sell and trade
With people who in different times
Spoke with rough chimes
This time in fantasy is once again to become reality
May I live long enough to see
This track once more used well
Then it someday new tales can tell
When the links are all replaced
by the men who live the steam dream
And the new train stock roles into the station
Then the bus and train will once again race
Through the fields of sheep and corn
When the hill grown sheep are shorn
When the Wensleydale train once again
Carries them from the hills to market towns
My mind returns to modern times
As new train stock roles into the station
All bought from gathered pots of brown leaf stew
Drunk by people like me and you
Me I toss a coin or two
In the pot for a new brew
To help the men who live the steam dream
Re-store my childhood haunts and all the lessons I was taught
These men with their gigantic toys
Play as little boys; toil as grown mean do.
To bring steam joy to me and you
This tea is from the place far away
A journey across the sky
Maybe one two three hours away
Steam Train will conquer once again
Restore this gentle mode of life
With a rebuilt railway line and great steam train.
Can order be reformed and peace be regained
Bye a railway steam train?

Hi please enjoy the work that I place here and on my Facebook just look for Demici. or Rosemary Sladden.
My motto is 'My computer is my wheelchair'. Because I am dyslexic and the technology of the computer and the keyboard have helped me to communicate using the written word. So all I place here is my own work ably assisted by Grammarly and WordPress.
Who I am!
I am finding it hard to learn how to be retired. Maybe if I look at it as just doing the things I love to do?
Now I have time my ambition is to travel on every bus and train in England. The fun is to find out what is around and watch the countryside as I travel through it.
More fun is being a medium (talking to dead people and working with guides who take me to where I need to be) So I would love to serve every Spiritualist Churches in England.
My writings come from my life experiences and the learning that has taken me down many paths of interest. From becoming an intuitive Spiritual Life Coach, Spiritualist healer, Reiki master, medium, teacher, philosopher to being a mother, grandmother, landlady who shared her home with many other people. From working as a turkey farmhand to driving a forklift truck in a warehouse. From traveling across the world during my childhood to settling down in my own little cottage in the north of England.
I share it all here for those who are interested.
I have gained experience and obtained qualifications that are listed below. I use them to help me understand my life as well as to help any who asks me for help to understand and improve their lives.
Life Coach, I can help me to look at people as individuals living a life that is different from mine and yet some of the experiences that they face have taught me to see that we all have lessons to learn in this life and need support to learn them from time to time. I learned how to teach people how to look at life from a different understanding place so that they can see their own way forward.
I am still learning how to be the best medium I can become. So that I can offer that bridge/telephone line between the two worlds and join friends and family who have passed into the next world with those in this world who. My thought is that we all can and do achieve this all the time it is nothing special just sometimes we are so upset disoriented that we think we can't. IF we loved someone once we can always know them because the memory sits in our heart. Healers work with energy and guides and their own spirit self to help to provide the energy so that other people who are in need can repair their own Dis-Ease.
I have used this place to put some relaxation and self-help poems, videos, sound recordings, lead visualization meditations I hope you find them useful. Lookout in the near future for the video files that will be here when I find out how to make them and then put them here.
Philosophy comes through in the poems I write that you can read on my blog, I hope you like them. If you would like me to help you please contact me (say that you have come from this site please) and I will see what I/we can do to help.
Something about me as a person. I am a great grandmother and used to live in a shared house that was very busy most of the time. Now great quietness is all around me as I move to a new one-story terraced property. (cottage)
I have loved to travel all my life. Why do I like to travel? Because I meet all kinds of interesting people. Some of the stories are posted on here for you to read. I hope you like this place and if you do please feel free to send me feedback I love feedback good or bad!
love and light to all who visit Demici
