Richard Llewellyn Quote
This watch my father gave me when I entered the Ministry. I would like to give you more. Take it, Huw. It has marked time that I loved.Warm from his pocket in my hand, the smoothness of gold and glass. No need for us to shake hands, he said, and his voice riding winds and seas, and his back black in front of me. We will live in the minds of each other, Huw, my little one. Good-bye, with love.
