THROUGH THE NIGHT

Michael Edwards

 

 

         THROUGH THE NIGHT          

 

 

Through the night

within the room in which they stayed

through the night.

The candle shed its wavering light

upon the bed in which they laid

as curtains by the window swayed

through the night.

    Good write.

    Is that another pub? If so as I have said before mines a pint of real ale.

      Yes it's The Staff of Life in Mowsley - and mines a bottle of wine.

      A pub ? Stately is an understatement . In medieval London there were seven pubs for every church . Prostitutes wore cloaks with yellow hoods , and ale was called stout because it packed a walloping punch . (not really , just sounds like it should )

        The good old pub - part of English heritage

          Line up behind Goldfinch - but mines still a bottle of wine.
