The Past Whispers


I have just watched a short travel film

Which was shot in Scotland over sixty years ago

How confident things were

In those friendly and ordered days

Everybody seemed to possess a sense of purpose

A will to succeed a bravery pure in its white ambition

So where did it all go wrong

I have my own thoughts about this

Which will offend

So I keep them to myself

I will let the recent past

Share Its unknown history

It is better that way
