celebrating and creating our own LGBTQI+ history in honour of Sheila McWattie

Day nine

It was not covid

I am glad

she would have been 100

not so bad

I posted pics of her in drag

“no darling it’s not my dad”

What a party we would have had.

my mum

gone

she was not 

and would not 

have been there 

for that party 

and I am glad.
