here l was apprenticed

Here l was apprenticed into a trade, but the most teaching l got was being apprenticed into life. Learning from a survivor of a Russian concentration camp.
Here was a teenager working for a old man who gave me a trade,friendship, and wisdom.
Things l still take with me now as l pilgrim.
Sure did not know what was ahead tears,
failed relationships,
 joys, cups of tea, great walks, fantastic friends.
Joy unlimited,
heartache like most others.
                                  All happened in Hull one letter from Hell

Wish you was here
its Paradise
 weathers warm
 l say hello
wish l could touch your face
