in the park

 
 



the evening shadows
play across the water
it's all happening here
in the park
 
a football match has not started well
the ball is lost
but a rescue has begun
 
sickness and death
lie out of bounds
we dare not touch
for fear
we may be found

two lovers meet
and part
here in the park
new beginnings
a fresh spring start

a night of music

 



Will life ever return to 'normal'?
 
One of the things many of us have missed during the pandemic lock-down has been listening to live music. So it was really special when our fledgling community group met in a little village church to celebrate the joy of music.
 
Our three musicians were brilliant, the cakes served during the interval went down a treat and best of all, we raised £260 for the Ukrainian DEC appeal.
 
That's what happens when people join together.

hope is

 
 



hope is
flayed
across
the back
of 
a
naked
torso
 
hope is
flexed
and
coiled
and 
burnt
 
hope is
wisdom
