The Fletchers Family And Friends Cell Phone Photo

 Introduction

This compilation of photographs taken by the Fletchers Family and Friends and posted on
Face Book is intended to : 1) further encourage members of the Fletchers Family and
their Friends to further develop their skills in the area of cell phone photography, 2) to
recognize the talents of the given photographers, 3) to create an additional area of display
outside of the formal exhibition areas for artistically talented family members and friends
and 4) to act as a form of permanent record to which individual family members and
friends can look back at in reflecting on some of their happier days.

It should be noted, that it is not the aim of the compiler to promote any given school or
trend in cell phone photography, to show all in an equal way, be it a Selfie or those
which are more formal in approach. Here it should also be noted, that, while the main
focus is on cell phone photography, other digital formats have been included. I would
like to thank Ms. S. Ashman a friend of the Fletchers family for permitting the usage of
photos of her paintings in this document.

IF I ONLY HAD TIME
(Original French version written by Pierre Delanoe & Michael Fugain - English
Lyrics: Jack Fishman - German Lyrics: Zimber & Feltz -
Dutch Lyrics: Jo De Clercq)

As recorded by GENE PITNEY:

(Whistling)
If I only had time, only time

So much to do
If I only had time, if I only had tiime
Dreams to pursue
If I only had time, they'd be mine

Time like the wind

Goes a-hurryin' by and the hours just fly
Where to begin
There are mountains I'd climb, if I had time

Since I met you I thought life really is too short

But loving you, so many things we could make true
One whole century isn't enough to satisfy me

Time like the wind

Goes a-hurryin' by and the hours just fly
Where to begin
There are mountains I'd climb, if I only had time

(Whistling)
If I only had time, only time
(Whistling)

JE N'AURAI PAS LE TEMPS

(Pierre Delano / Michel Fugain)

As recorded by MICHEL FUGAIN:

Je n'aurai pas le temps

136
Pas le temps

Mme en courant
Plus vite que le vent
Plus vite que le temps
Mme en volant
Je n'aurai pas le temps
Pas le temps

De visiter
Toute l'immensit
D'un si grand univers
Mme en cent ans
Je n'aurai pas le temps
De tout faire

J'ouvre tout grand mon cur

J'aime de tous mes yeux
C'est trop peu
Pour tant de curs
Et tant de fleurs
Des milliers de jours
C'est bien trop court
C'est bien trop court

Et pour aimer
Comme l'on doit aimer
Quand on aime vraiment
Mme en cent ans
Je n'aurai pas le temps
Pas le temps

Je n'aurai pas le temps

Pas le temps...

"Black Woman And Child"

[Intro:]
Who what, The Black nation
I love It
Ohh woh woh, oh woh woh
From di day mi born mi did dun know sey
My color a di first, I nuh last
So how yuh expect I fi duh certain things
Ohh woh woh, Oh woh woh

[Chorus:]
Black woman and child, yeh yeh yeah
For you I really have so much love
Dollar bills and coins will fade away
They could never make I so proud
Black woman and child, yeh yeh yeah
For you I really have so much love
Dollar bills and coins will fade away
They could never make I so proud

[1:]
Motherland Africa still remain so fine
Empresses and Emperors living from in those time
I know you are the first to give birth unto mankind
Now let me say oh the earth Queen Omega is divine
take I to Zion I give thy praise
Thats where my covenant will be always
How have you been going through those stage
Of being away for many days

[Chorus]

[2:]
Who knows
Who will trod upon the road just to make things great
You and yuh children, I see them in front yuh face
I say keep them close, as you increase their faith
Marcus Garvey dun say, a him save the future fi days
Ohhh
Natural in your choice, in your way to your needs
You were born of the one to conceive
You and yuh child go smooth as the breeze

[Chorus]

[3:]
Who are those standing at your door
Dressed in Ithiopian clothes coming more and more
Oh what a lovely day, the blessing is so pure

151
Someone conceive today, of this I am sure
Eh heh yeaah...
