...In the shadow of the arches...

The rain lashed eastwards as I huddled under the shadow of the arches, warming my hands over a makeshift fire.“Any success?” I hollered out to Jim.He stumbled towards me, across the stony mud, holding a tattered anorak over his head.“Aye lad, I found some leftovers on a bench.

...Food for thought...

Looking back over my life, times and food have changed drastically. I remember TVs with three channels, and telephones fastened securely on the kitchen wall.And, I remember eating homecooked meals around a kitchen table.

...Like you...

There was never a need to search for you. You have always been present, watching over me. Though I was a chaser of dreams, dreams you allowed me to dream, troubles you allowed me to get into, always, you were with me, and you rescued me.
