Received this email from one Sybil Leris she is the owner of Loch's Royal Hotel
I've been in there two or three times as my memory serves me well
A local told me it was owned then by the local Football Club
The food was good the beer tasted good in this grand old country pub.
She told me her family farmed in Yanakie of Latvian ancestry
A people known for their warmth and their friendship and their generosity
And true to the Latvian in her she even offered me free lunch and tea
On the next time i am in her pub whenever that might be.
Such a marvellous gesture on her behalf for my meal she would pay
To her i do feel grateful i feel stuck for words to say
To her to thank her for her generosity from Loch i now live far away
But i will pay her a visit if i am in Loch one day.
'Tis nice to know that she is one who enjoy reading the stuff i write
Positive feedback from a visitor to my Web Poetry Corner Site
Though penning rhyme for me at least a hungry belly game
The gift of making other people happy i would not swap for wealth or fame.
An email from Sybil Leris one i have yet to meet
I thank her for her kind words and her offer of a treat
An Aussie of Latvian heritage a warm and a friendly race
I thank her for her generosity her heart's in the right place.
