At Lambeth Bridge ...

I saw them walk towards the bridge -

The crowd drew back to let them pass -

Awestruck perhaps, as I was -

It was as though I saw angels -

Each angel bearing witness -

Wearing their silence as they wore their robes -

With beauty and strangeness -

Bringing legend into the wounded city -

Leaving their mark in the dreams of all who saw them -
