A QUIET CORNER


Here is my quiet corner, my corner of reflection.

And here I come to reflect on the one and only Jeremy Brett.

Remember Sherlock Holmes? Well Jeremy Brett was the definitive Sherlock Holmes! Maybe it’s not your forte but it is mine. So I have made a quiet corner in his memory.

Jeremy was a great actor who sadly passed away in the year 1995.

He suffered from a bipolar disorder, (that’s depression to you and me).

So here I come to sit and remember him and the pleasure he gave to thousands.

If anyone wants to chat about him or his wonderful portrayal of Sherlock Holmes, then please drop me a line.

Now he rests in peace, no more at war with his demons.

God bless Jeremy Brett.




A better Sherlock Holmes there could never be

Jeremy brought to life a man of mystery.

He stepped into the shoes of Sherlock Holmes

Breathing life into Conan Doyle’s books.

Maybe the two of them now sit together in a better place,

Discussing all the frailties of the human race.

Maybe they party now and then

Sipping wine from the glass of eternity.

One thing is for sure,

Jeremy has walked through heavens door.

No more to entertain us here on earth,

But in our hearts he still lives on.

Nothing ever really dies,

And knowing that makes death a lie.

Jeremy you were a Gentleman from birth.

Till one sad day the angels took you

away from us mortals here on earth,

They took you home, but oh so gently.

Alas, we miss your kind and gentle ways;

No more acting no more plays.

But in our hearts and minds you still appear,

Handsome and tall, forever the Victorian gentleman,

Always the master of your craft.

No tears, no sadness, all is well in Gods great plan.
