Sunday

Sunday - the weekend's tombstone, burying the worst of last week. The silent ringing of church bells, best suit coffined in my wardrobe. I see proud parents pushing prams, grandads toddling after toddlers, but no young couples promenade, as we did when teenagers. Some sought their compensation in sensational Sunday press. It's surely generational. We were schooled for Sunday rest.
