raining day, the pram hood smelled. gabardine.



blue white edging patterned              greek style.

sound of water falling,                 puddled apron,

bread in damp paper,         taste of crust corner.



springy, bouncing down green road, my brother

weighting.                                           the other end.



a blanket to pick fluff

&

straps to bind me.



later came other fragments, the whisper of sausages for tea, the promise of marmite,

fragile gas mantles to repace night time candles.



my brothers.
