~ Angie's Lovely Holiday ~
I have a friend called Angie, who lives in a Yorkshire town
She went on a little holiday, to Scarborough she was bound
'Tis nestled by the ocean, within a pretty bay,
Angie sent the photos, to share with you this way
She goes there with her hubby, to walk on sandy shores,
They wandered in the gardens, in the flowers she adores
They went to pretty cafe's, drank tea with buttered scones
Climbed on rocky outcrops and walked pathways far beyond
Angie loves the seaside, the balmy breezy beach
Angie loves her holidays, the gifting of the peace.

'Scarborough'
Scarborough,......... oh! how I do love thee,
your tastes, sights, sounds, sands, and the smell of your sea.
Oh! How I do love thee,......more than I love me,
you bring out in me the best, the same with everyone else, you meet and greet,  
Giving my mind, my heart, my soul, my body a well deserved rest,
a bit of all alright, (we say 'alreet' in Yorkshire, I must confess)
 
Oh! how I do love thee, when I'll be dead and gone one day,
there will be my spirit, my soul, a part of me,
forever floating, flying free,..........
soaring like a seagull up above, in the place I most love to be ......

Scarborough. Oh! how I do love thee,
By Angela Mary Johnson,  September 12th 2006

And this is where they pause and chat
the English folk, 'bout this and that,
on village greens and cobblestones,
in corner shops with all they know
and then to new friends they will show
 a kind and friendly air...
for English folk will always stop
and say a nice `hello'
`by blossoms`

'Friends Are Life's Gift Of Love'
If people like me.. didn't know people like you,
life would lose its meaning and its richness too.
For the friends that we make are life's gift of love
 and I think friends are sent from heaven above
and thinking of you.. somehow makes me feel
that God is love and He's very real.

On a palette of words I will tenderly blend,
Colorful thoughts, with bright verses to send.
Painted, a rainbow in reds, blues and gold,
Stretched like loving arms ready to enfold. 
And deep in the center of the most vibrant hue, Etched from memory the essence of you.
Painted a rainbow, a bridge to my heart,
So being lonely can begin to depart.
Just look in the sky the rainbow God sends,
He painted a rainbow, for YOU my friend.

Compassion is sometimes the fatal capacity for feeling what it is like to live inside somebody else's skin.
It is the knowledge that there can never really
be any peace and joy for me
until there is peace and joy finally for you too.

~ Early history ~
The town was founded around 966 AD as Skarðaborg by Thorgils Skarthi, a Viking raider, 
though in the 4th century there had briefly been a Roman signal station on Scarborough headland, 
and there is evidence of much earlier Stone Age and Bronze Age settlements. 
However, the new settlement was soon burned to the ground 
by a rival band of Vikings under Tostig Godwinson, 
Lord of Falsgrave, and Harald III of Norway. 
The destruction and massacremeant that very little remained 
to be recorded in the Domesday survey of 1085. Scarborough recovered under King Henry II,
 who built a stone castle on the headland, and granted charters in 1155 and 1163,
 permitting a market on the sands, and establishing rule by burgesses.[5]
Edward II gave Scarborough Castle to his favourite, Piers Gaveston. 
In his castle at Scarborough, Gaveston was besieged by the barons, 
captured and carried to Oxford for execution.

Luna Park Scarborough-utube
A small family amusement park on the sea front in Scarbrough on the East coast of England.
The 4 and a half minute long video shows the Twist, Miami, Ferris Wheel and Dodgem. The amusement park also features several childrens rides including a formula car ride, jumping jack tower and a helter skelter.
****************************************

 The South Bay was the site of the original early medieval settlement and the harbour, 
which form the current Old Town district. 
This remains the main focus for tourism,
 with a sandy beach, cafes, amusements, arcades, theatres and entertainment facilities. 
The modern commercial town centre has migrated 440 yards (400 m) north-west of the harbour area 
and a 100 feet (30 m) above it, and contains the transport hubs, 
main services, shopping and nightlife.
 The harbour has undergone major regeneration including the new Albert Strange Pontoons,[4] 
a more pedestrian-friendly promenade, street lighting and seating.

~ The Garden ~
God keeps a very pretty garden
And tends it all with care
He waters, weed and gently nurtures
 All it's loveliness to share
He fills each part with prettiness
Where friendly flowers grow
Bordered all around with primrose
The loveliest to show
I love the walking in God's garden
His love upon the path
Every wondrous budding friend
In the garden of my heart

~ Flowers That Encircle ~
You walked around the garden,
your eyes filled with delight
Each flower there so lovely
To fill your heart with life
Round and round you walked,
Then stooped to touch the blooms,
The tender feel like velvet
So soft with morning dew
Then you went into the centre
and bobbed among the hue
And the flowers there encircled
the very heart of you

The most striking feature of the town's geography
is a high rocky promontory pointing eastward into the North Sea.
 The promontory supports the 11th century ruins of Scarborough Castle
 and separates the sea front into a North Bay and a South Bay.

The North Bay has traditionally been the more peaceful end of the resort.
This is the south bay, from the castle

~ The Gates Of Dawn ~


Together we were wandering
 into the gates of dawn
savouring every precious memory,
 as we meandered through the throng.
Intent on finding beauty, all along our way
We climbed as high as we could see
And through the stone majestic arch
In the fulfilling of our dreams
Picture
North bay Scarborough © Angie 2006
Below the waterfall we skipped, 
then lay in the boat on rippling lake,
staring up to sunlight streaming through the trees, like diamonds in the sand.
Then back through the arch we ran,
laughing, hand in hand....

Where neither midday's heat nor squall of rain
Could steal the loveliness away.
As with hearts in childlike faith, 

we raced across the bridge,
to return in joy again-
In the world created by Our Father,

just for us today.

...here in our own garden of eden,

where we will never leave,

 Our little touch of heaven
in our hearts will always stay.

The North Bay - the more peaceful end of the resort
has 1. Scarborough's famous Sea Life Centre
2. British attractions-Sealife Scarborough
and is home to Peasholm Park an oriental themed municipal park
located in the seaside town of Scarborough, North Yorkshire, England.

which in June 2007 was restored to its Japanese-themed glory, 
complete with reconstructed pagoda.
 The park still features a mock maritime battle (based on the Battle of the River Plate) 
re-enacted on the boating lake with large model boats 
and fireworks throughout the summer holiday season.

Picture
Peasholm Park © Keith D 2008
The park is on the site of a medieval manor house of Northstead 
which was part of the Crown Estate from the 14th century. 
By the beginning of the 20th century the area was open land used for farming and as allotments.
 In 1911 Scarborough Corporation bought some land called Tuckers Field
 from the Duchy of Lancaster to create a public park.
It was the borough engineer, Harry W Smith, 
who had the idea of setting out the gardens in Japanese style. 
Japanese style statues in the park were purchased from Killerby Hall 
and exotic shrubs and flowers 
were imported from the home of a local retired banker
who was living in the French Riviera.

In This Garden
there's

 a silence
in the shadows
from the grey statue, 
cold and alone, standing in
 morning dewdrops flowers opening
their faces turning....upward to the sun,
birds keep fluttering, from branch to branch,
frogs are leaping ponds.. eyes peering in the moss,
there is silence, yet there is softest music, in this garden
from the zephyrs... whistling through the swaying trees.
There is beauty in this garden pretty blossoms laughing

in their glee, fireflies dancing in the misty sky, water
coursing in the stream, cool to touch, refreshing
to the feel.. a wonderland in this garden, 
where you can bring your memories
and cherish them to keep.
There's wild animals,

carved from wood, with eyes,
there's wild animals in the woodlands

where cute ducklings & white goslings waddle by, 
as my friends, I stroke and I feel their rippling strength

There is a dragon in this garden, breathing fire and smoke,
if, I close my eyes tight, I can imagine, as I sail the wooden boat,
 red and green and gold, I float. ..there is wonder in this garden,
I find it as I walk, I feel the velvet petals, and I look up to the sky
I see my Jesus smile..... His eyes twinkling, for I am happy,
here in His pretty garden....in the loveliness He made
I hear His willows weeping & His water lapping
I look upon His mountains, I feel safe.
There is peace within His garden
I feel the warm sunshine too

it ripples on the stream
I am still, I listen
and I
whisper
'thank You'

Middle click for video of the Battle  ~ Visit Scarborough/naval-warfare
Peasholm Park is a haven of tranquillity in North Bay – 
unless the battle ships are taking pot shots at one another!
At times during the summer season, war breaks out on the Lake 
when 20ft replica boats recreate the tensions of a battle at sea.
For more than 80 years the “Battle of Peasholm” has been played out for 30 minutes
 three times every week during the summer season
“It is of course the smallest manned navy in the world!”
Gunfire and smoke fill the air, and the aircraft drop bombs from above.
People flock to watch the Battles, mentioned in newspapers around the world.


All the boats were man powered, until 1929, when electricity was introduced, and now only the larger boats are steered by council employees laying inside.
In the early days, the models were First World War battleships, called Dreadnoughts, and a U-boat. 
Then, after the Second World War, the fleet was replaced with new vessels and the battle that was recreated was the Battle of the River Plate.

Other events in the park include silver and brass band concerts, party in the park, proms in the park and lantern displays.

Peasholm Park 
opened in 1912 and became a favourite venue for galas, displays and exhibitions.
The park was extended to include Peasholm Glen, a natural ravine, in 1924.
Attractions include an artificial boating lake, where the mock naval battles are staged,
a putting green, The Garden of Tranquility with a champion tree walk.

~ I Cannot ~
Some things I cannot do, without another  thought of you
I cannot walk a garden path, without feeling all you would impart
I cannot look upon the stars, in dark of night, without seeing you within my sight
I cannot make a cup of tea, without imagining you here, as close can be
I cannot drop my eyes in prayer, without thinking of you over there
I cannot walk the sands of time, nor feel the wavelets on the shore
Nor wake within the mornings rays, without praying for you more
I cannot twirl an autumn leaf within my outstretched hand

without wondering, how much, you too would understand
I cannot touch your soul, as God the Father will
But I will always pray, His love your heart may fill

~ My Friend ~

My friend took hold my hand, and said, come walk with me,
We'll travel down this winding path, that only we can see.
None knows where it will lead, we're in God's loving care,
 He blesses us with friendship, eternal love to share.
We pause to rest a while, upon a cosy bench,
With so much to catch up on,  that words can never quench.
Our talk dances in the air, like gossamer sweet kiss,
Velvet in such richness, moments of shared bliss.

Golden tea in clear glass mugs, steam sweet aroma in the air,
Teddy fluff, all sorts of stuff, newsy bits to share.
My dear friend is like a book, with tender preparation
many chapters there to look, may there be no  sad conclusion.
So our tune of loving friendship, plays a never ending song
Sad notes and happy ones, for two to play along.

With my friend I share a secret, an opinion, grief or laugh,
A silence never matters, while we enjoy the path.
There's much we need to do, so we always have to part,
Separated by time and place, but we stay close in heart.

Search for the goodness of our God, 
search and seek and find
for His secrets are for all
who ask for the divine
`blossoms`

Fill your life with goodness,
take it from God's hand,
fill your life with all He gives, 
now, because you can

God has given us a very special garden where we grow all the friends we love to know

It's raining pretty petals, it's waterfalling joy
Let's lay among the fragrance

gazing to the heavens
from this lovely vantage point
then up we'll get to trek, that path around the bend,
to see what we can see
because we're best of friends and there we'll talk and walk
and then we'll talk some more...
until it's time for tea
`blossoms`

PRAISE THE LORD FOR SPECIAL THINGS 

FOR HAPPY DAYS THAT SPRINGTIME BRINGS 
FOR PRETTY BLOSSOM IN THE TREES

AND FLOWERS DANCING IN THE BREEZE
 
FOR SUNSHINE IN THE SKY ABOVE 
AND ALL THE WAYS GOD SHOWS HIS LOVE.
