Hiding Behind New Dust
Looking back
there was, without a shadow
of a doubt, a certain beauty there
…
Albeit trapped and shrouded
caught and held firm
on those high narrow ledges
…
And again, within
such deep crevices, like those
we once found hidden and then lost
…
Yes, that is where it so often
went unnoticed despite such an
extraordinary spark at the heart of it
…
Where stained glass
stands as a sharp testimony
to the new dust that now surrounds it

This is a class thing i'm sure.... the only dust i got was on my Airfix kits dangling from the ceiling. The ones my dear brother used to love to aim pieces of folded cardboard at, propelled by an ack ack elastic band.
Ha' I still had a couple of them until very recently .. Airfix kits that is .. thanks for propelling ya self forward you old spitfire you 🙂
A fine write Neville.
Blame me teacher - one said to us 'Sing loud, so as to dislodge the dust from the ceiling'. So I did - and not stopped yet! lol. I'm covered in dust now. (Do shut up, Orchi. lol).
you need to be very careful when you raise your voice above the merest squeak Orchidee .. but I thank you regardless .... 🙂
Beauty tho' dust-trapped finds ways through to let shine its attraction and to whomsoever - as does this write dear Nev. with such a spark of beguile behind every line.
Now that'll do very nicely .. thank you my lady Fay....................

When we remove the dust from our lives we always see what beauty we had during that life.
