Walking under an Armistice sky ...





I walked my mum and dad to church under an Armistice sky - 

Anne had to remind my dad to take his stick - 

My mum pushed her sholley across Union Road - 

Beautiful windblown leaves covered the pavements - 

Everyone's asleep my mum said - 

A homeless man sheltered from the rain in Trafalgar Walk -  

In the precinct, men in dark blazers waited to honour the fallen

The Mayor climbed out of her official car -
