The Sense of London
Young Mum on the train
with two tiny sons
She entertained
Her husband seemed numb
Sophia Greek Church
with tones and rich colours
Devout God believers
and two cheese pie lovers
Portobello Road
play a wise jazz trio
with musical gifts
that never had mellowed
Two mounted Police
ride high in the throng
Are the buskers accepted
or told to move on
The Kyoto park
where peace is suggested
but crowds like to speak
of the beauty invested
St John's on the hill
with Ukrainian song
Heavenly harmonies
voices soft but strong
Then to walk in the rain
to the warmth of a bar
Thousands of steps
having covered so far
The Design Museum
Past Hyde Park we roam
so much for the senses
round London and home
