Rounded off post tops, twisted and twirled
Balustrades, fair places for the children
With fair hair
Sat with a smile
Beside your granddad, in a straw hat
A string vest
You remember the testament
A personal recollection of the ending
Of the war
Indescribable, words fail
Instead; tales of evacuation
Sisters
Children; from all over
In ones and twos and threes
With your long past adolescent
Smile
Behind the broad rimmed glasses
Back into happiness
Way away from sadness
Toss another pebble
Into the flow and ebb of sea
