IVOR GURNEY (Additan)

Ivor, sensitive, fragile
Who wrote music scores & poetry
Served in the ranks during WW1
Wrote with light of the moon and stars
And of the light of the signal flairs
The nights above him

After The War
Ivor died his sensitive - fragile - mind - broken
Rest of days confined in a psychiatric hospital
Died 1937 aged 47

This is good Ken. I thought the way you gave me the image of him writing was so very apt; thank you.
