Sunset 27 October - Judy Walsh
I look to the East, not my side of town
it momentarily makes me frown!
Then I see the White Hart pub
- familiar and Jack Slims Club.
I see the ferry and right out to Paull
and across the river it all looks small.
Below me is a railway car?
I don’t know what that is for!
Blue lights flashing. Buses and cars
all around both near and far.
An electric scooter flashes by
now that I might quite like to try!
I move to the West side to view and see
the West is the side that belongs to me.
I see the Wilberforce statue and the bridge on the river
the water is murky it makes me shiver.
The Guildhall is shrouded in net and metal
the result will be a building in fine fettle.
The birds are the only thing higher than me
all down below look very twee
- tiny and scurrying heading for home
some in pairs, some alone.
It is very cloudy out there tonight
so not much sunset for me – there’s little sunlight
But watching the sky darken and the night fall
this experience was great and I’ve loved it all.
