Music for my mother, Barbara Bennett, 25 May 2023

Yesterday, I wanted to tell you something I thought you would find interesting, then I remembered you are dead, and now I have forgotten what it was.

I hear from cousin John. He has written a piece of music for you. You would have been thrilled, I am touched.

I look up Christopher Wheeldon’s ballet, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, music by Joby Talbot. One of the last things we shared and enjoyed.

‘Memories are priceless’ I hear. So is music, so is life.
