How Did That Happen?

How did that happen?

I was cleaning my glasses,

Listening to the Radio,

When the announcer said

That the Orchestra,

An Orchestra that I do not know well,

Were playing this, their last ever performance

At the Proms.

And this, their final encore, they played

In memory of their times together.

As the glorious sounds of Nimrod

Came through my ears, into my mind,

Tears just streamed down my face.

Why did that happen?
