Does anyone know this love poem?

Can you remember any other key words? I tried searching my poetry sites for things that would be similar, themes, slightly different wording. Came up with jack. Maybe just a specific word you remember hearing? Or anything. Lemme know, and I’ll keep looking. :)

um…trying really hard to think….maybe something about a postbox perhaps? but not sure…will keep thinking! thanks for your help asmonet! x

No problem, I’ll try more later today! :D

Where was she from? It sounds like an English or Appalachian folk song.

Lancashire in England

Did it include anything about “and on the way I dropped it”?

no… I know the one you’re thinking of Jeruba… that’s an old children’s rhyme I believe… a tisket a tasket…. but no..it’s not that one thanks anyway x

Still looking, wish me luck.

thanks asmonet… i do really appreciate it x

My dear, I think I’m losing my google mojo. I can’t find a thing that fits. If I were you, I would send out an email to the family members who were there that Christmas asking them what it was and requesting they not share what you’re doing with your mother if it’s a surprise. It may well be that an aunt or cousin has it stashed away somewhere in their closet or their memories.

Good luck finding it, and if you do, please lord share! I’m kinda bugged by this one now…but in a good way. :)

thanks asmonet…will do… x
