It does make sense but if she hadn't told about it we wouldn't know about it!!

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

which is why she did tell us... so we could pass it on.....

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

She could have had a permanent memorial to her uncle by putting up a plaque or paying for a memorial bench somewhere. This is all about drawing attention to herself, not him.

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

but a public memorial would have been graffiti'd thanx to the very respectful people that like doing these thing for a laugh! that can be just as upsetting as when they die!

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

I said permanent, not public. Think about it, in a few years when she walks along with her back exposed (hopefully not in Winter) few people are going to have a clue who the poem is about. They will, however, look at the tattoo, so who's going to be centre stage? Who will be the one being noticed? Not the uncle.

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

that is a permanent tribute.... any way people have different views.. can we agree to disagree about this one?

Re: Memorial tattooist?
 

Of course we can. We all have our own slant on life and it would be a dull old world if we didn't. :)

There was a young lady from Ossy

Who tatooed a poem on her body

This literary lass

Had rhymes on her a**

And metaphors, none of them shoddy.

I don't like the last line ... but it came off the top of my head, like my hair is doing. Someone help me out.
