"My life is richer because of you, and that's not something that will change, 'cause love lasts forever!".

  This song is for my gorgeous godson Reuben. Chris and I loved playing with Reuben, feel utterly blessed to have known him and to have been part of his life. Reuben was tragically killed in a car accident in December 2017, aged only three. 

  Reuben's Song' conjures up Reuben's playful spirit and warms my heart. I hope it provides some comfort to those that knew him.  It features in 'PLAY Poems and Pictures' an anthology of poems by notable poets around the world. This anthology has been put together by Reuben's grandparents, Susan and Simon Williams to raise money for the Vire Island playspace, a playpark in Totnes in memory of Reu. (This song is a DEMO, to be released at the same time as 'PLAY' so people can hear the song and read the words)
