Dear Steve
I cried when I heard you died
Not even a year since being a groom
Your bride shook at the viewing, I watched in silence
Feeling her pain
Months before
You had shared with me , your love story
I had smiled, assuming
kindness would bring kindness
And you would experience love , for years, in it's glory
I know you were not unnerved
That you would feel that God had a reason
but I still can not find an answer
Why you two can not be dancing on this earth
To continue your new life with you virgin wife
To have the joy you deserved
Sincerely, Your sad friend

Tea set by a suffragette
Pankhurst is a name well known to the history of women’s suffrage. Who hasn't heard the name Emmaline Pankhurst, founder of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), an all-women organisation campaigning for the right to vote? The group that helped to achieve the right to vote for women in Great Britain and Ireland in 1918. Some know of her daughter Christabel, both being honoured by the Pankhurst memorial in Victoria Palace Gardens, London, right next to the UK Parliament buildings. Sylvia Pankhurst is notably not included in the monument. Why? Because she split with the WSPU to campaign against Britain's entry into First World War.
